This is my first encounter with Lucene. I
am trying to integrate it with Cocoon. From what I read so far I prefer the
approach with LuceneIndexTransformer. Here is where I need some assistance.
>From what I understand, the transformer creates the index from .xml files with
proper Lucene annotations. I also read that the transformer not only creates
the index, but also transforms the file to an xml result format, containing
data about the indexed documents. For searching I want to use
SearchGenerator. It says that I'm searching the index. Now why do I need the
xml result from the LuceneIndexTransformer if I'm searching the index. So you see, I am kind of confused. If
someone could please explain the concept (focused on LuceneIndexTransformer -
SearchGenerator pair) for me, I would greatly appreciate it. Risking to sound stupid, I want to add
that all the pages from my web application contain dynamic data collected
from a DB. I hope they can be indexed. Thank you in advance! Dan |
