It very much depends on how xapwrap stores its data, but I'm afraid I
don't know anything about how it does that.

I suspect that it's going to be quite hard to make a database built
with xapwrap searchable with xappy.  Even if you can get the IDs and
other field prefix mappings set correctly (which would involve hacking
into the internals of xappy to directly set its prefix map - not a
very robust approach), the way in which text is indexed with xapwrap
is unlikely to be identical to xappy, which will lead to poor search
performance at best; often searches simply won't return the right
results.

Instead, I think you'd be much better off trying to build new indexes
from scratch with xappy.
