speed by the specific data structures it uses. Revising Lucene to access a
traditional database directly, to use the database tables as its "index", would
most likely reduce search performance below the level where searching the data

To: lucene dotNet> Subject: question> > Hello> I wanted to build a search
engine using the net-lucene, the problem is I find it a little ambiguous to
understand , I know it doesn't do crawling and I understood it only do the
indexing and the searching, but it doesn't interact with any database, I assume
it use data structures instead of tables in database,> Anyway, now I need to
know if I understood right, and how to make it interact with database (if my
assumption was true, what are the classes that I need to modify to do that)>
And if the lucene have any flowcharts, activity diagrams or any diagrams that
show the flow of data how do I get them.> > Another question> If I wanted to
support a certain language what are the classes that I'll need to implement>
Thanks in advance>
