I would also note that Solr is a great way to start learning Lucene since a lot of the underlying Lucene concepts are visible in Solr and eventually a lot of Lucene users will end up having to re-invent features that Solr adds to Lucene, anyway.

Maybe when I finish covering Solr in my e-book I'll start diving into coverage of Lucene as well. The original book idea did include covering both Lucene and Solr, but that deal fell through and I decided to stick with Solr as my initial focus.

Actually, I've already had some thoughts about adding some chapters on a deeper dive into underlying Lucene concepts for Solr users, such as the structure of Query objects and tokenization and token filtering, mostly since advanced Solr users run into issues there, but those areas are difficult for Lucene users as well.

Right, unfortunately, there's nothing that I know of that's super-recent.
Jack Kupransky is e-publishing a book on Solr, which will be more up
to date but I don't know how thoroughly it dives into the underlying Lucene
code.

Otherwise, I think the best thing is to tackle a real problem (perhaps
try working on a JIRA?) and get into it that way.

The 3.1 book has a lot of good background, it's still valuable. But the
examples will be out of date.

Unfortunately, writing a book is an incredible amount of work, writing
code is much more fun <G>...

Best

You have my yesterday question :)

After unzip lucene, you just need to import lucene core. JAR file into your project to use (with eclipse,just drag and drop).

Lucene core.jar (I do not remember exact name, but easy to find this jar file) provides core functions of lucene

I am learning about Apache Lucene from Manning book: Lucene in Action.
However examples from book is for Lucene v3.0.3 and today Lucene is in
