Apache Lucene Store plugin for IBM WebSphere eXtreme Scale
I'm written a lucene store plugin for IBM WebSphere eXtreme Scale. It's a new Lucene Directory class that uses WXS for the indexes in a remote data grid. I used my wxsutils jar also. You can find it with source code here:
You can see a test case for it here. The test case makes a grid within the test JVM. For real usage, start a remote grid with the configuration xmls in the test/resources directory and then use WXSUtils to connect to it instead of startTestServer.
Any one using this with any issues then make a bug on github for me. I'll be continuing testing myself over the next week regardless looking for any issues.
Make sure you put the wxsutils*.jar file on the grid classpath. Every container JVM you start needs this jar on the classpath. You don't need the wxslucene jar on the grid classpath.
The command line args I use for starting the grid containers is:
-Djava.util.logging.config.file=/Users/ibm/Documents/Development/Samples/wxslucene/src/test/resources/logging.properties -Djava.endorsed.dirs=/Users/ibm/Documents/Development/og71/lib/endorsed -server -Xmx512M -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote
