You'll have to implement org.apache.lucene.store.Directory to load the index from the JAR file. Take a look at FSDirectory and RAMDirectory for some more details. Then you have either load the JAR file with java.util.jar.JarFile to get to the files or you can use Classloader#getResourceAsStream to get to them. -- Miles Barr <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Runtime Collective Ltd. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
