I need to somehow aloow users to do a text search and query relational
database attributes at the same time. The attributes are basically metadata
about the documents that the text search will be perfomed on. I have the
text of the documents indexed in Lucene. Does anyone have any advice or
I'm a bit confused why you want this.
As far as I know, but relational db searches will return exact
matches without a mesure of relevancy. To mesure relevancy, you need a
search engine. For your results to be coherent, you would have to put
everything in the lucene index.
As for memory
Bascially I want to limit the results of the text search by the rows that
are returned in a relational search of other attribute data related to the
document. The text of the document is just like any other attribute it just
needs to be queried differently. Does that make sense?
Thanks

Create a Lucene index from data in DB, and make sure to include PKs in
one of the fields (use Field.Keyword).
Then query your RDBMS and get back the ResultSet.
Then get the PK from each ResultSet and use it to construct a Lucene
BooleanQuery, which should include your original query string AND
