I believe there are tools out there that will analyze Java sources and create UML class diagrams from that. I believe TogetherJ or one of those 'all in one' tools can do that. I can do it for you, if you want - it takes ~10 minutes. -- -- Best regards, Andrzej Bialecki - Software Architect, System Integration Specialist - FreeBSD developer (http://www.freebsd.org) - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Potential Lucene drawbacks
If I understand you correctly, then maybe you are not aware of RemoteSearchable in Lucene. That class cannot be used in Merger. RemoteSearchable is a class that allows you to pass a query to another node, nothing less and nothing more AFAIK. This is the point that's more clear to me now. There is confusion about what Lucene is and what it is not. Lucene does not even try to be what those services you mentioned are. Their goals are different, they are a different set of tools. Lucene's focus is on indexing text and searching it. It is not a tool to query other existing search I do not think so. It is all about the object model you use. If you are not able to solve the simplest case, how can you distribute the engine across the network? I do not mean the simple RMI gateways which marshall parameters and send them through a network pipe, I mean the true system that could beat google (and it is another topic...). Moreover, I think that Lucene can do much more than you think Otis :).

That is the difference between a simple library and a targeted application. Moreover, I think that Lucene can do much more than you think Otis :). Egothor can do that, so why not Lucene?
