    • Illuminating Lucene.Net slides and code samples

      Posted by Dean on May 15, 2013

      Yesterday I delivered my presentation on Lucene.Net to the DC Alt.Net meetup. I got a ton of great questions at the meeting — hopefully I was able to answer most of them!

      For those who couldn’t make it, or those who want a chance to review and share the presentation, you can find the presentation here: http://www.slideshare.net/DThrasher/illuminating-lucene-20130514

      And you can find the Visual Studio 2010 / Lucene.Net 3.0.3 code samples here: http://www.infovark.com/downloads/IlluminatingLucene_20130514.zip

      If you have questions, or would like help implementing Lucene.Net, please contact me.

      Thanks to all who attended, and special thanks to Stephen Ritchie for running the Washington DC Alt.Net meetup. I’m glad I was able to contribute something.
