Hi,

I'm using Hibernate Tool for my application. Now i wants to implement indexing on my tables. For that I need to generate an IndexWriter for each and every object for Indexing and Searching. If i'm developing POJO's manually, doing indexing and searching is not a big deal. But all that stuff is done by the tool. So, addding this indexing and searching part to every part is very tough task. Whether Hibernate Tool provides any support for Lucene Indexing and Searching? If so, how?



I think one of the alternative is to migrate to OpenSymphony's Compass.



Any feed back is appreciated.

what do you refer to when you say "*all* that stuff is done by the tool" ?

"All" in the sense, POJO's, Mapping XML's and DAO's.

and what is you want to do in context of Lucene ?

Generate some specific code or how ?

The sample code available at http://www.hibernate.org/138.html

Here the developers made indexing and some more Lucene related stuff at the object level itself.

I'm asking whether the Hibernate Tool do any of that Lucene part.

Thank for your continuous feedback.

no we don't have any of that built into the tools.

Ok then. Thank you Max, for your continuous reply.
Whether do you have any idea of extending the Hibernate Tool to Indexing and Searching using Lucene?

No current plans, but since it would just be pure code generation then anyone can write some templates to do it. Nothing special about it.

Contributions welcome.

Ok Thank you Max.

Hibernate Annotations let you integrate wtih lucene by simple annotations.
check it out.
