Hi all,=20

=20

         I have a web-based application that we use to index text
documents as well as images; the indexes fields are either
Field.Unstored or Field.Keyword.=20

=20

=20

         Currently, we plan to modify some of the index field names. For
example, if the index field name was DOCLOCALE, we plan to break it up
into two fields: DOCUMENTTYPE and LOCALE. Since, the index files that
lucene creates have become quite big (close to 1 gig), we are looking
for a way to be able to read the index entries and modify them via a
standalone Java program.

=20

Does lucene provide any APIs to read these index entries and update
them? Is there an easy way to do it?

=20

Thanks in advance

Srimant
