showing index method

[Gasi <ga...@artentis.com>]

Hallo,

is there an method in lucene to show the whole index content? I know an index consists of more than one file, but it is possible to watch in the index? Aha very important I know that there is 'Luke' but I am seacrhing for an method idealy written in Java.

Thank you in advance

You're best off to post Java-centric questions to java-user@lucene.

Luke is open-source and in Java - so feel free to dig underneath and  
use what you like from it.  A Lucene index is simply a directory on  
the filesystem (if you're using FSDirectory), so could just look at  
the files in that directory.
