---------------------------------

             Summary: During table creation re-read the field types from the 
index.
                 Key: BLUR-59
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BLUR-59
             Project: Apache Blur
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Aaron McCurry


Currently in ZooKeeper blur stores the fields and their types so that no 2 
shards can have the same field name with different types.  However if the table 
is dropped but the indexes are saved (i.e. Not deleted).  Then the table is 
re-created referencing the same indexes the field types will be lost.

There are several ways to solve this issue, however this brings a larger issue 
up.  The fact that meta-data about the index and the indexes themselves are 
stored in 2 different locations.  Perhaps the right solution would be to move 
all the meta-data about the table and the indexes to the storage location and 
remove it from ZooKeeper.  That way the meta-data and the data can be kept in 
sync more easily.
