Serious roadblocks back when I was working with wp7 .net framework. I haven't picked it up again for wp8, but im willing to bet it would be much easier.

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. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
