Then see my other mail about Java Serialization. It works (but not so fast), but is the simpliest way to do it.
I do not use the serialized fields during searching, I store them only for usage in some special maintenance tasks on the indexed documents. So it's the same use-case. For this use case serialization speed is enough. ----- Uwe Schindler H.-H.-Meier-Allee 63, D-28213 Bremen http://www.thetaphi.de eMail: u...@thetaphi.de > -----Original Message----- > From: MilleBii [mailto:mille...@gmail.com] > Sent: Saturday, July 04, 2009 10:26 AM > To: java-user@lucene.apache.org > Subject: Re: Storing a serialized object ? > > Right I'm not indexing such fields, they are actually a kind of document > property of my own > > 2009/7/4 Uwe Schindler <u...@thetaphi.de> > > > > That is one way, or you do it base64 encoded in a text field if don't > > > care about space at all. :) > > > > Lucene also have binary fields for storing.
