I notice that the Lucene book offered by Amazon was published in
2004. I saw some mail on the subject of a new edition.
Is the new edition available in any form?
I promise to buy the new edition as soon as it comes out even if I
get some of the material early. I wrote a book which was published
by the MIT Press; I know how long it takes to get a book out.
This is a thread more suited to the Manning forum for LIA: <http://
www.manning-sandbox.com/thread.jspa?forumID=152&threadID=17520>
In short, LIA2 will live, that much is for sure.
Failing that, how should I learn more about the internals of Lucene?
Ask here. Delve into the source code. Study the unit tests.
My client has a large code base in C++. The system has its own
index which is not all that fast. One way to improve performance
would be to convert to the C version of Lucene.
Is HTTP communication viable for your situation? If so, give Solr a
shot. C -> HTTP -> Solr -> Lucene and back won't be "not all that
fast". In fact, it'll be very fast.
