hi Erick,

I agree lucene do not index the object. in the following example I have
quoted fields are indexed as chain.chainName.
I am able to retrieve recipe objects using FullTextQuery as
"chain.chainName:something' ... question is in somecase chain itself is
null.
I can be able to achieve required as below:

class Recipe {
  @DocumentId
  Integer id;
  @IndexedEmbedded
  Chain chain = new Chain();
  //gettter and setter
}

 class Chain {
  @DocumentId
  Integer id;
  @Field(index = Index.TOKENIZED, name="chainName")
  String name = "NULLNULNUL";
  //getter and setter
 }

so this means to always there is will be chain along with Recipe object with
has default name to "NULLNULNUL" and that wil be indexed..
We dont want to do that, Recipe is our persistence object and we hate to do
that.

-Amar
