How to start using Hibernate Search?

Question

I have a working web app which can do search for User objects through its Username. I wonder if I can use Hibernate-Search to do a text search through all of the User object attributes, like its:

Username, Full Name, Address, etc.

And will output User objects with attributes that matches the search query?

Also is there any thing that is needed to be annotated in the User class in my application?

User.java:

public class User implements Serializable{

    private String username;
    private String fullname;
    private String address;
    // Code omitted

    public User() {

    }
    // Getters & setters omitted
}

Yes, you can. Have you read the documentation? http://www.hibernate.org/subprojects/search/docs. — JB Nizet, Jan 06 '12 at 08:22

I start with googling:

and reading the documentation like this:
