Apache Lucene is a free open source information retrieval software library, originally written in Java by Doug Cutting. It is supported by the Apache Software Foundation and is released under the Apache Software License.
Let's go into apache lucene "hello world", so we get an basic idea what is it. Go to the offical site and download the latest release. Below is the tutorial I follow from the official documentation, and using apache lucene version 4.10.3 with oracle java 7 with slight modification to the tutorial.

Usage: java org.apache.lucene.demo.IndexFiles [-index INDEX_PATH] [-docs DOCS_PATH] [-update]
This indexes the documents in DOCS_PATH, creating a Lucene indexin INDEX_PATH that can be searched with SearchFiles

As you can see, instead of indexing the source of java class file, I index the javadoc in html format and it works nicely. Although my system is loaded but the index still reasonably quick. Apache lucene finish index within 95seconds for a total of 5818 files. After index are done, if you do a list on the directory data, you will notice the lucene index files. If you want to go into details what are these files before, you should read this documentation.

The search is quick even though in the loaded system. That's it, a light learning experience on apache lucene.
