I mean I need to flush the index periodically.that's mean that the
index will be regularly updated as the document being added.what do
you reckon is the solution for this? I need a sample source code to be
able to flush an index.

ok just like this source code below.

public class SimpleFileIndexer {
        
        public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
                
                File indexDir = new
File("C:/Users/Raden/Documents/lucene/LuceneHibernate/adi");
                File dataDir = new
File("C:/Users/Raden/Documents/lucene/LuceneHibernate/adi");
                String suffix = "txt";
                
                SimpleFileIndexer indexer = new SimpleFileIndexer();
                
                int numIndex = indexer.index(indexDir, dataDir, suffix);
                
                System.out.println("Total files indexed " + numIndex);
                
        }
        
        private int index(File indexDir, File dataDir, String suffix) throws
Exception {
                
                IndexWriter indexWriter = new IndexWriter(
                                FSDirectory.open(indexDir),
                                new SimpleAnalyzer(),
                                true,
                                IndexWriter.MaxFieldLength.LIMITED);
                indexWriter.setUseCompoundFile(false);
                
                indexDirectory(indexWriter, dataDir, suffix);
                
                int numIndexed = indexWriter.maxDoc();
                indexWriter.optimize();
                indexWriter.close();
                
                return numIndexed;
                
        }
        
        private void indexDirectory(IndexWriter indexWriter, File dataDir,
String suffix) throws IOException {
                File[] files = dataDir.listFiles();
                for (int i = 0; i < files.length; i++) {
                        File f = files[i];
                        if (f.isDirectory()) {
                                indexDirectory(indexWriter, f, suffix);
                        }
                        else {
                                indexFileWithIndexWriter(indexWriter, f, 
suffix);
                        }
                }
        }
        
        private void indexFileWithIndexWriter(IndexWriter indexWriter, File
f, String suffix) throws IOException {
                if (f.isHidden() || f.isDirectory() || !f.canRead() || 
!f.exists()) {
                        return;
                }
                if (suffix!=null && !f.getName().endsWith(suffix)) {
                        return;
                }
                System.out.println("Indexing file " + f.getCanonicalPath());
                
                Document doc = new Document();
                doc.add(new Field("contents", new FileReader(f)));              
                doc.add(new Field("filename", f.getCanonicalPath(), 
Field.Store.YES,
Field.Index.ANALYZED));
                
                indexWriter.addDocument(doc);
        }

}


the above source code can index documents when given the directory of
text files. now what I am asking is how can I made the code to run
continuously? what class should I use? so that everytime there is new
documents added to that directory then lucene will index those
documents automatically, can you help me out on this one. I really
need to know what is the best solution.

thanks
