Thanks Ernesto. The issue I'm working with now (this is more lack of experience than anything) is getting an input I can index. All my indexing classes (doc, pdf, xml, ppt) take a File object as a parameter and return a Lucene Document containing all the fields I need.
I'm struggling with how I can work with an array of bytes instead of a Java File. It would be easier to unzip the zip to a temp directory, parse the files and than delete the directory. But this would greatly slow indexing and use up disk space.
