Kamran Ayub commented on LUCENENET-167:
---------------------------------------
Prescott, did you have your progress available? I was looking at NoSQL options
for Windows Phone and Lucene came to mind as I use it at work. If you can share
your progress, I may be able to pick it up... There are some smart people where
I work and some who are pretty fond of Lucene. It might be a fun project.
For now, I will probably use Sterling unless I find something else.
Are unsigned ints available in SL5 (WP8)? I haven't checked. Could always write
C++ code for stuff that needs to be closer to the metal.
> Compact Framework & Silverlight Support
> ---------------------------------------
>
> Key: LUCENENET-167
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENENET-167
> Project: Lucene.Net
> Issue Type: Wish
> Components: Lucene.Net Contrib, Lucene.Net Core, Lucene.Net Demo,
> Lucene.Net Test
> Reporter: Andrew C. Smith
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: silverlight
>
> Lucene.Net should support the Compact Framework & Silverlight versions of the
> .NET Framework.
> I've looked into what it might take to do this and most of it is pretty
> trivial to be able to support these frameworks. Most of what this would take
> is just changing the different type of classes to use for collection classes
> used inside of Lucene.Net.
> This does require changing some details in a lot of places, However this
> should *not* bring any compatibility issues with *Java Lucene*'s API or index
> format. It will just change the classes used to some different ones that the
> frameworks support and also maybe need 1 to 3 classes that might need to be
> implemented in Lucene.net itself.
> Having made these changes Lucene.Net can be more available to new devices
> such as running on a window mobile cell phone, or your pda, or run in a
> Windows, Linux, or Mac computer that runs a silverlight application. This
> will allow the .Net compact framework & silverlight developers to use
> Lucene.Net in their applications to provide their users with the same
> capabilities of an awesome search framework. Developers can also use
> Lucene.Net to provide them spell checking capabilities in these environments.
