Indexing AutoCAD files

Hi team,

Is there a way lucene can index AutoCAD files - "*.dwg" files?

If so, please let me know. 

Can you please provide some insight on the same?

 

Thanks in advance..

 

Regards

Vignesh

Hi Vignesh,

I believe that you would have to incorporate GDAL in to Tika in order
to read the file and extract the proper metadata. This is entirely
doable but I don't know how to do it. There are companies out there
that specialize in this sort of thing so hopefully, one of them has
already contacted you outside of this list but I would love to see
some detailed instruction on how to integrate GDAL in to Tika.

Best of luck,
Adam
