Hi, How about just opening a file and parsing through it while adding doing a doc.add on each newline? That should be pretty straight and simple. Just writing the snippet here, though this might have issues as didnt try to compile it.
IndexWriter writer = new IndexWriter(indexDir, new StandardAnalyzer(), true); FileInputStream fstream = new FileInputStream("textfile.txt"); DataInputStream in = new DataInputStream(fstream); BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(in)); String strLine; while ((strLine = br.readLine()) != null) { Document doc = new Document(); doc.add(new Field("filename", f.getCanonicalPath(),Field.Store.YES,Field.Index.TOKENIZED)); doc.add(new Field("filename", strLine,Field.Store.YES,Field.Index.TOKENIZED));//DEPENDING UPON HOW YOU WANT TO INDEX IT writer.addDocument(doc); } in.close(); writer.close(); Also, I have tokenized the content and stored it so that it could be fetched, you might just want to have a ref key instead of storing the entrire content though. Upto you for implementation. -- Anshum http://ai-cafe.blogspot.com On Thu, Aug 7, 2008 at 1:42 AM, Brittany Jacobs <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>wrote: > Hello, I am new to all this.
