This isn't exactly what you were asking for and I know it is a somewhat ugly way to 
implement this (violates some OO rules by having knowledge of RAMDirectory internal 
implementation) but I thought it might be of use to some folks and/or might provide a 
starting point for someone else to try and tackle this.

It provides a mechanism for getting a RAMDirectory for an index stored on your 
classpath provided that you know the names of the files that comprise the index using 
ClassLoader.getResource

The test class creates an index, puts it in a jar, adds the jar to a class loader, 
then reads the index from the jar via the class loader into a RAMDirectory.

Someone posted something like this at one point, but ironically I  
cannot _find_ it.  I definitely would be interested in having something  
like this handy.

If anyone has pointers to the implementations posted, please let us  
know.

Thanks,
