Lucene4c is a port of Lucene to C, using the Apache Portable Runtime for portability. Eventually I hope to build mod_lucene, an Apache module that allows searching over a lucene index, on top of this framework.
It's currently read-only, requiring the use of Java Lucene for actual indexing. Support for indexing will follow, as will the million and one other things I haven't gotten around to implementing.
This is very much a 'proof of concept' release, it's basically just a bunch of code to parse lucene segments, just the lowest levels of what will hopefully grow into a full Lucene-like library. The 0.01 release has just enough functionality to find all the documents in a segment that contain a particular term and print out a field for each of them.
Tonight is the first time it's been able to do anything that even resembles a search, so it seemed like a good time to get some eyes other than mine on it.
Please direct any feedback, questions, comments, or patches implementing large parts of the missing functionality to me.
I'd welcome any of the four of course, but patches are the most appreciated ;-)
Oh, and of course you can actually download the code at:
