Hello All, Apolgies if it is a naive question
a) Indexing large file ( more than 4MB ) Do i need to read the entire file as string using java.io and create a Document object ? The file contains timestamp, if i need to index on timestamp is parsing the entire file manually (tokenizing) and store the timestamp as document object is the only way ? or is there any alternatives ? b) I need to search the contents of a log file which is changing rapidly, from initial testing i see if any changes in the file is not reflected unless it is *Indexed* again Do we need to index the files always before search if the content of the file is dynamically changed ( log file has a pattern and always logs in a similar fashion, each time i need to index takes lot of time as the file is large (approach a ) is there any work arounds for this ? ) I would greatly appreciate if any inputs on the above, Many thanks, Abdul ____________________________________________________________________________________ Need a quick answer?
