search xml using lucene ,is that possible?

[mmrs]

Hi all
I got some xml files placed on some where like "Company Home > MyProject> Projects > Proposed > Submitted Project".
The "Submitted Project" folder contains xml files that represent data  and forms of that project
and i want to search these xml files but i need the result as pairs of(tag : value) ;
some thing like "whrere projectId=2 and  pipeWidth=8" so is that possible?? and if yes how?
the structure of xml look like this:

<project id="">   <properity1 />   <properity2 />    …    ..</project>‍‍‍‍‍‍

i did that using org.xml.sax package ,but i have to do that using lucene to increase performance and reduce the execution time of the search
i search the http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Search but didn't find what i want
any one have some example ,link  or any guide
help is highly appreciated

thanx in advance

… till now i came up with this:

String xmlTag="<"+searchIn+">"+searchFor;        SearchParameters sp=new SearchParameters();        sp.addStore( new StoreRef(StoreRef.PROTOCOL_WORKSPACE,"SpacesStore"));        sp.setLanguage(SearchService.LANGUAGE_LUCENE);        sp.setQuery("PATH:\"" + "/app:company_home/cm:MyProject/cm:Projects/cm:Proposed/cm:SubmittedProject" + "//*\" AND TYPE:\"" +                    ContentModel.TYPE_CONTENT + "\" AND TEXT:\"" + xmlTag + "\"");ResultSet resultSet = getSearchService().query(sp);‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

where searchIn: the xml Element
searchFor: it's value (number)

but the problem is that lucene looks for string here not int here;
if element "pipeWidth" has the value:08 in the xml file ,and the search parameter were:
searchIn="pipeWidth"
searchIn=8 ,  then resultSet will be null  :cry:

how can i fix this
please  some one highlight this post

regards

The XML Metadata Extractor can be used for this - it extracts element and/or attribute values from XML files and stores them in metadata properties (which can be indexed into the search engine).

There's a page on the wiki that documents how to configure XML Metadata Extraction.
