Hi

I'm currently doing just that: using the php-java bridge. Here the
goal is to integrate Java-Lucene with a php4 based CMS (eZ publish),
so the Zend framework is not an answer (and premature imho). The code
we've written is a bit CMS specific, but you should be able to to do
the same quite fast.

About having an indexreader open all the time, it should be feasible
(the php-jave bridge can be installed in a number of ways) but have
not tacled that yet.

Good luck

Hi,

Thank you for reply.
I've also had a look at Zend framework. But, at
this moment they do not support unicode,
which is a mandatory requirement in my case.

The other thing - performance. In order
to run faster - it's necessary to have opened
index, rather then open and close it for each request.
Index updates have to be serialized somehow and after
the update, it has to be re-opened again.

IMO, for this purpose it's better to have Lucene
in "separate process" and implement some kind of
communication protocol between PHP and Java sides
(sockets, etc)
