Replace library/XenForo/Search/SourceHandler/MySqlFt.php

[mlx]

I'm working on a Sphinx Search Engine handler to replace the default MySQL full text search.

For testing purposes I just edited library/XenForo/Search/SourceHandler/Abstract.php and replaced

public static function getDefaultSourceHandler()
{
return new XenForo_Search_SourceHandler_MySqlFt();
}

with

public static function getDefaultSourceHandler()
{
return new SphinxSearch_Search_Sphinx();
}

It's working nicely this way.

I just can't seem to figure out how to override that method with a proper Code Event Listener.

Any ideas?

Needless to say that I'm going to post the result as a free add-on.

The use of getDefaultSourceHandler() looks like there is intended to be a soft return value there, which has not yet been put in place. For now I think you're along the right lines until a listener becomes available.

Alright then. I'll just post it as is with an instruction how to set it up tomorrow
