If you're using 2.1, see IndexModifier. If you're previous to 2.1, the IndexModifier is (I think), hanging around in the contrib area. You have to delete a document and re-add it, there's no such thing as "modify inplace" in lucene currently.

Hi all, Just wondering how one would perform index maintainance. I know how to add new documents: writer = new IndexWriter(IndexDirectory, new PorterAnalyzer(), false); (incidently, I wrote PorterAnalyzer myself for the PorterStemFilter since I couldn't find an analyzer using it) But what I don't know is how do we delete documents from the index and how we replace documents in the index where those documents have changed.
