The current LIA book, while written to the 1.4 code base is a very good place to start. There will be some incompatibilities with the 2.0 codebase, but they're relatively minor.
I guess I'm really recommending that you go ahead and spend the bucks on the current version, it'll be money well spent if you can't get an updated version promptly. Haven't a clue about the other Lucene ports. Erick On 1/26/07, Bill Taylor <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
I notice that the Lucene book offered by Amazon was published in 2004. I saw some mail on the subject of a new edition. Is the new edition available in any form? I promise to buy the new edition as soon as it comes out even if I get some of the material early. I wrote a book which was published by the MIT Press; I know how long it takes to get a book out. Failing that, how should I learn more about the internals of Lucene? My client has a large code base in C++. The system has its own index which is not all that fast. One way to improve performance would be to convert to the C version of Lucene. Has anyone build a multi-million document index with the C version? Where should I go to start learning about it?
