Hi, I have been using Lucene "out of the box" since 1.4.3, wonderful full text engine, I love it.

But I can't use it "out of the box" any more, I am going to have to write some code (Oh no! Mr Bill.). I am fairly certain that the code needed will be trivial, but I am unfamiliar with Lucene's API and certainly could use some good advice. Maybe even a few sample lines of code J

The documents I am indexing into Lucene all have an integer unique ID (21345). This ID is not and will not be in the document context. But I need to the able to retrieve from Lucene the document ID. I know the document ID at index time so I can tell the indexer what the ID is except I do not know how to do that. Reading faq/wiki it seems that I can define a field called documentID and add that to the index but I can not find any sample code to do this that I could use as a guide. If some could show me how to use fields add/retrieve (assuming that is the correct way to go) I would greatly appreciate it.



thanks in advance jim s
