Is any work being done on a .Net port of Solr?

I'm looking to embed Solr as a library in a .Net app. I understand that there is an embedded Java client which queries a Solr core directly, and I could potentially run this on IKVM, however, I'm looking for something which has been translated. I also have looked at Solrnet, but it appears to be only a client to an http-hosted Solr insta...

Lucene filters and the "AND" operator

Hi folks, I'm building an e-commerce search and I am using Lucene.Net as my search engine. I am having trouble filtering my queries, though. This is one of the documents I have indexed, with the following fields and values: field: "name", value: "Mochila MVP" field: "manufacturer", value: "Nike Accessories" Now, when I run these sea...

Multiple IndexReader/Writers in one process (Lucene)

We are maintaining a Lucene index which contains around 20mm documents. The nature of the search queries is such that indexing and quering can be easily split between different indexes. To achive that we need to keep many (potentially thousands) of IndexWriters or IndexReaders/Searchers in memory to deal with indexing and quering of eac...

How to index Word 2003, 2007 and 2010 documents using Lucene.NET

IKVM.NET and Lucene

Hi, I am using Lucene.Net but there are some interesting Java components for Lucene (especially analyzers) that haven't been ported to Lucene.NET yet so maybe IKVM is a better choice. Some research has shown that IKVM seems to work pretty well, but I haven't seen anything regarding Lucene. Does anybody have experience running Lucene wi...

Lucene.NET: Query or Filter?

It is my understanding that documents are found based on a query, and then that result is then filtered by the filter. The Query is the only that that will effect the score/relevance of a document. Would there be any performance (caching) improvements if I query results that have relevance towards relevancy, and filter items that don't...
