Is there a way to do this?
Lucene deals with text. You could always serialize your objects in a byte array, hex encode them or something, and store that in an appropriate field.
What would you suggest to do?
Don't store your objects in Lucene :)
As other have pointed out, you will be much better off storing your object somewhere else (files, db, btree, whatever) and only use Lucene to store a reference to those objects.
For a concrete example of this approach, take a look at ZOE [1] source code [2].
It uses Lucene for, er, indexing and JDBM [2] to store the corresponding object's binaries.
