: the Luke request handler writes it out: : : indexInfo.add("version", reader.getVersion()); that's the index version (as in "i have added docs to the index, so the version number has changed") the question is about the format version (as in: "i have upgraded Lucene from 2.1 to 2.3, so the index format has changed") I'm not sure how Luke get's that ... it's not exposed via a public API on an IndexReader. Hmm... SegmentInfos.readCurrentVersion(Directory) seems like it would do the trick; but i'm not sure how that would interact with customized INdexReader implementations. i suppose we could always make it non-fatal if it throws an exception (just print the exception mesg in place of hte number) anybody want to submit a patch to add this to the LukeRequestHandler? -Hoss
