Hi Michael,

What Solr is really doing is building a Lucene index. In most cases a Java developer should be able to access the index that Solr built through the IndexReader/IndexSearcher classes and the location of the index that Solr built. See the Lucene API for details on these and other classes. The default index location is in solr/data/index relative to where you start the servlet which is running Solr.

Hope you find that helpful,
Tricia

Hello all:

We've got one java-based project at work using lucene.  I'm looking to use
solr as a search system for some other projects at work.  Once data is
indexed in solr, can we get at it using standard lucene libraries?  I know
how I want to use solr, but if the java devs need to get at the data as
well, I'd rather that 1) they be able to use their existing tech and skills
and 2) I not have to reindex everything in lucene-only indexes.

I've read the FAQs and some of the mailing list and couldn't find this
question addressed.

Thanks.
