In addition to Ben's comment, you can buy "Lucene in Action" to get you started. The book is Java based, but as Ben pointed out, not only are the API's 1-to-1 ported, the entire logic is too. Also, the test code is a good place to start if you are looking for examples of how to use a specific feature.

That being said, If you're comfortable with C#, you'll notice that one of the great things about the Lucene.Net project is that it's a API-level port so pretty much all of the java examples will run as-is with minor modifications to the syntax and of course the proper casing of method names. I know it may seem a little overwhelming at first but give it a try and you might be pleasantly surprised at how easy it is to get up and running. -- Ben On Mon, Aug 17, 2009 at 10:23 PM, Ed Jones <edmund.jo...@warc.com> wrote: > I know this isn't the best place to post this question but I don't know > where is. > > In the past the main reason I've not used Lucene.net in projects is that I > can find very few examples or tutorials on how to use it, write a crawler on > use the various components.
