Getting Started with Lucene.NET

Have you ever built a search using a SQL LIKE statement, only to have your users complain about functionality? A simple SQL-based search doesn’t handle synonyms, misspellings, prefixes, suffixes, result rankings, weighting, and so on and so forth. Fret no longer, you can spend a little more time and build a “smart” search using Lucene and get all of these features as well as the ability to tweak the search as much as you like.
