Hi, Lucene supports string/int literals for indexing and searching. In other words, anything that can be transformed into a string/int can be consumed by the lucene api. Moreover, so are you trying to implement an image search? In that case perhaps you'd have to either figure out a transform else try something else. If it is mere storage of an image in lucene (for a particular doc, to be fetched) you may as well do what is done by other similar engines behind the scenes e.g. for blob objects. Just store a path/link to the actual image instead of image in the index and fetch it at runtime (in the wrapper code).
