Ritesh --
You are correct in thinking that "@@" is a special operator defined for tesearch2; it uses the GIST indexes to do a
search,but more than that I can't say, since I am not really familiar with tsearch2. (In the postGIS world there is a
vaguelyequivalent operator, "&&", again using postgres' ability to define ones own data types and functions.

Subject: [GENERAL] Question with tsearch2 (or it might be a general one too)
Hello
A newbie to PostgreSQL from MySQL and just trying to learn tsearch2. In
one of the examples at:
http://www.sai.msu.su/~megera/postgres/gist/tsearch/V2/docs/tsearch-V2-intro.html
the query given is:
SELECT intindex, strTopic FROM tblmessages
WHERE idxfti @@ to_tsquery('default', 'gettysburg &
address')
AND strMessage ~* '.*men are created equal.*';
What does the '@@' in the query means?
I did a search at:
http://search.postgresql.org/www.search?ul=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.postgresql.org%2Fdocs%2F8.1%2Finteractive%2F%25&fm=on&cs=utf-8&q=%40%40
an it dosnt return any result.
Is this specific to tsearch2? What does that mean?
Ritesh
