Search for images using C # in a folder with local images

Question

We have a folder with images, which contains about a million images. We need to write a program that will extract an image based on a keyword entered by the user. We need to match the file names during the search to find the correct image. Look for any suggestions. thanks N

Answer 1

Depending on your operating system, I suggest you use the indexing service, Windows Desktop Search, or the latest version of Windows Search. This solves your keyword-based file search problem, eliminates performance issues regarding the number of files in a folder, scales and easily extends.

The DSearch example at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd940335(VS.85).aspx does almost what you want and is easy to implement.

For example, if you request a million files and you need to move the file to subfolders to increase performance, you can simply create folders and move files. You will not need to change the code.

If you need to change the way you apply keywords, for example, use keywords for file summary properties, you only need to change the query.
