问题
We are writing unit tests for our ASP.NET application that run against a test SQL Server database. That is, the ClassInitialize method creates a new database with test data, and the ClassCleanup deletes the database. We do this by running .bat scripts from code.
The classes under test are given a connection string that connects to the unit test database rather than a production database.
Our problem is, that the database contains a full text index, which needs to be fully populated with the test data in order for our tests to run as expected.
As far as I can tell, the fulltext index is always populated in the background. I would like to be able to either:
- Create the full text index, fully populated, with a synchronous (transact-SQL?) statement, or
- Find out when the fulltext population is finished, is there a callback option, or can I ask repeatedly?
My current solution is to force a delay at the end the class initialize method - 5 seconds seems to work - because I can\'t find anything in the documentation.

You can query the status using FULLTEXTCATALOGPROPERTY (see here: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms190370.aspx).
For example:
SELECT
FULLTEXTCATALOGPROPERTY(cat.name,'ItemCount') AS [ItemCount],
FULLTEXTCATALOGPROPERTY(cat.name,'MergeStatus') AS [MergeStatus],
FULLTEXTCATALOGPROPERTY(cat.name,'PopulateCompletionAge') AS [PopulateCompletionAge],
FULLTEXTCATALOGPROPERTY(cat.name,'PopulateStatus') AS [PopulateStatus],
FULLTEXTCATALOGPROPERTY(cat.name,'ImportStatus') AS [ImportStatus]
FROM sys.fulltext_catalogs AS cat
You might also like to use SQL Profiler to monitor what commands SQL Server Management Studio issues when you bring up the properties dialog for the catalog. The dialog includes an indicatin of population status and all the information shown is queried using T-SQL.

I would like to offer an easier-to-read version of @Daniel Renshaw's answer:
DECLARE @CatalogName VARCHAR(MAX)
SET @CatalogName = 'FTS_Demo_Catalog'
SELECT
DATEADD(ss, FULLTEXTCATALOGPROPERTY(@CatalogName,'PopulateCompletionAge'), '1/1/1990') AS LastPopulated
,(SELECT CASE FULLTEXTCATALOGPROPERTY(@CatalogName,'PopulateStatus')
WHEN 0 THEN 'Idle'
WHEN 1 THEN 'Full Population In Progress'
WHEN 2 THEN 'Paused'
WHEN 3 THEN 'Throttled'
WHEN 4 THEN 'Recovering'
WHEN 5 THEN 'Shutdown'
WHEN 6 THEN 'Incremental Population In Progress'
WHEN 7 THEN 'Building Index'
WHEN 8 THEN 'Disk Full. Paused'
WHEN 9 THEN 'Change Tracking' END) AS PopulateStatus
Results:
LastPopulated PopulateStatus

This is a stored procedure we created based on GarethOwen's answer. It accepts a comma separated list of tables as parameters and waits until full text indexes on all of them have been updated. It does this check every tenth of a second to prevent thrashing the disk and times out after 10 seconds just in case things are running slowly/broken. Useful if your FT searches are across multiple indexes.
Called in the following way:
EXECUTE [dbo].[WaitForFullTextIndexing] 'MY_TABLE,ALTERNATE_NAMES,TAG_GROUP_VALUES,TAG_GROUPS,FIELD_OPTION';
The source:
CREATE PROCEDURE WaitForFullTextIndexing
@TablesStr varchar(max)
AS
BEGIN
DECLARE @Tables AS TABLE( [word] [varchar](8000) NULL)
INSERT INTO @Tables (word) SELECT items from dbo.Split(@TablesStr, ',');
DECLARE @NumberOfTables int;
SELECT @NumberOfTables = COUNT(*) from @Tables;
DECLARE @readyCount int;
SET @readyCount = 0;
DECLARE @waitLoops int;
SET @waitLoops = 0;
DECLARE @result bit;
WHILE @readyCount <> @NumberOfTables AND @waitLoops < 100
BEGIN
select @readyCount = COUNT(*)
from @Tables tabs
where OBJECTPROPERTY(object_id(tabs.word), 'TableFulltextPopulateStatus') = 0;
IF @readyCount <> @NumberOfTables
BEGIN
-- prevent thrashing
WAITFOR DELAY '00:00:00.1';
END
set @waitLoops = @waitLoops + 1;
END
END
GO
dbo.split is a table value function that everyone must have by now which splits a string on a separator into a temporary table:
CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[Split](@String varchar(8000), @Delimiter char(1))
returns @temptable TABLE (items varchar(8000))
as
begin
declare @idx int
declare @slice varchar(8000)
select @idx = 1
if len(@String)<1 or @String is null return
while @idx!= 0
begin
set @idx = charindex(@Delimiter,@String)
if @idx!=0
set @slice = left(@String,@idx - 1)
else
set @slice = @String
if(len(@slice)>0)
insert into @temptable(Items) values(@slice)
set @String = right(@String,len(@String) - @idx)
if len(@String) = 0 break
end
return
end
GO

Thanks Daniel, your answer got me on the right track.
I actually use the following T-SQL statement to ask if the population status of the full text index is Idle:
SELECT OBJECTPROPERTY(object_id('v_doc_desc_de'), 'TableFulltextPopulateStatus')
'v_doc_desc_de' is the name of the database view that we index.
If the population status is not idle, I wait a couple of seconds and ask again, until it is Idle. It is important to wait a small amount of time between checks to ensure the full text population is not slowed down by continuously checking the population status.
The MSDN documentation states that the OBJECTPROPERTYEX function (at table level) is recommended over the FULLTEXTCATALOGPROPERTY statement with property 'PopulateStatus'. It states the following:
The following properties will be removed in a future release of SQL Server: LogSize and PopulateStatus. Avoid using these properties in new development work, and plan to modify applications that currently use any of them.

To wait for a full text catalog to finish population of all its tables and views without having to specify their names, you can use the following stored procedure. This is a combination of JohnB's answer to this question and the answer by cezarm to a related question:
CREATE PROCEDURE WaitForFullTextIndexing
@CatalogName VARCHAR(MAX)
AS
BEGIN
DECLARE @status int;
SET @status = 1;
DECLARE @waitLoops int;
SET @waitLoops = 0;
WHILE @status > 0 AND @waitLoops < 100
BEGIN
SELECT @status = FULLTEXTCATALOGPROPERTY(@CatalogName,'PopulateStatus')
FROM sys.fulltext_catalogs AS cat;
IF @status > 0
BEGIN
-- prevent thrashing
WAITFOR DELAY '00:00:00.1';
END
SET @waitLoops = @waitLoops + 1;
END
END
