I provide them a nice user interface. They have the option to generate the full text search index but they should also be able to search without an index generated. I know that will be slow, but Microsoft Windows Search is still able to search 500 MB in less than 30 seconds for simpler matching. =20 How can I use Lucene for this simpler, not existing index, search? =20 Or should I have to hook to operating system specific API like Win32 on Windows? ------_=_NextPart_001_01C5896E.FCBF0982--
