[MonoTouch] In-app Search.

[jhandel at gmail.com]

Generally I am a big fan of Lucene.NET (I've run a 25Gig index on luceue with sub ms response times) I just wasn't sure with all the crazy Memory and filesystem stuff they do if porting it to run inside Mono is a realistic effort. :-)

Thanks for the thought though.. I'll definitely check out whats changed and see if It can be cobbled together.

There is a .net version if Lucene. We are using that (but not on iOS)

Howdy all,
  Before I go reinvent the wheel I figured I would ask.. We have an app that will host several hundred pages of content (local).. And our client would like to make the content searchable.. What kind of in-app search strategies have you guys tried to employ in the passed?

I'm debating wrapping a C version of Lucene for MonoTouch but that seems like ALOT of work.. anyone have any toolkits or tricks they have used in the passed?  I was also thinking about perhaps integrating with Spotlight but I don't know how that would work from inside the app.

Thanks
Josh
