Re: Indexing of documents in memory

[Karl �ie]

The org.apache.lucene.store.InputStream is not a _stream_ per see as it requires a seek() function and it is therefore not compatible with the java.io.InputStream consept, however you can quite easily create a java.io.InputStream by grabbing hold of the byte content of a org.apache.lucene.store.InputStream and stuff it into a java.io.ByteArrayInputStream.

This doesn't make any sense anyhow because the raw bytestream from a RAMDirectory will not make any real sense to a HTML parser because the content of the RAMDir is an binary index. If you want to store the input HTML documents you should store them into a byte or char array in a file or database.

Hi
I am trying to use RAMDirectory to store the input
HTML documents which are used to create index by the
IndexHTML demo program, but I am facing problems.
I tried to get individual InputStream objects for
individual files from RAMDirectory & pass it to
HTMLParser class to parse the file, but the HTMLParser
class accepts java.io.InputStream object while
RAMDirectory returns lucene.store.InputStream object.
Is there any way to perform any conversion between
there two objects? or do I have to modify HTMLParser
class & all other classes it uses to achieve this??
Please let me know
regards
Vinay.

Hi,

I want to use Lucene for indexing some documents

which

are in memory. I do not want to store them in a
seperate directory.
The IndexWriter class accepts directory name,

where

all documents to be indexed are stored. Is there

any

way by which we can specify memory buffer in which
documents are stored while creating Index?
Thanks
Vinay.
