There is an experimental feature in Hibernate Search which is as well known and as well documented as an easter egg:
org.hibernate.search.sandbox.standalone.FullTextManager allows to use Hibernate Search in "standalone" mode, i.e. without a database and storing all data in the Lucene index only. This doesn't even have tests, but hasn't harmed any kitten so far. However now while I'm looking at doing some refactorings in preparation of Lucene 4, this looks like something that will need a complete rewrite, and is adding some resistance already by depending on deprecated methods which I'd rather remove asap. So I'm proposing to delete it, for the time being with no replacement. If there is interest we'd need to rewrite it anyway, but I'd prefer doing that eventually after the migration. Are we all ok with this? Cheers, Sanne _______________________________________________ hibernate-dev mailing list hibernate-dev@lists.jboss.org https://lists.jboss.org/mailman/listinfo/hibernate-dev
