Hi, Thank you for reply. I've also had a look at Zend framework. But, at this moment they do not support unicode, which is a mandatory requirement in my case.
The other thing - performance. In order to run faster - it's necessary to have opened index, rather then open and close it for each request. Index updates have to be serialized somehow and after the update, it has to be re-opened again. IMO, for this purpose it's better to have Lucene in "separate process" and implement some kind of communication protocol between PHP and Java sides (sockets, etc) Regards, /Alexander --- Vinay Yadav <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, > > Zend Search Framework can help you.
