C++ framework for search and indexing like clucene

does anyone know some good alternatives for clucene as a search and indexing framework for c++ which is well documented and up to date?

Thanks in advance!

Solution

  • You could try Sphinx - http://sphinxsearch.com/.

    Sphinx is a free software search engine designed with indexing database content in mind. It currently supports MySQL, PostgreSQL, and ODBC-compliant databases as data sources natively. Other data sources can be indexed via pipe in a custom XML format. It is distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License version two or a proprietary license.
