Shai Erera closed LUCENE-606.
-----------------------------

    Resolution: Won't Fix

Closing due to long inactivity, and also because I don't think it's a bug. 
IndexReaders today expose a getSequentialSubReaders API which allows one to 
fetch a Document's fields from whatever sub-reader they want. Also, the general 
concept behind ParallelReader is that fields do not exist in more than 1 
sub-reader.

> Change behavior of ParallelReader.document(int)

>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-606
>             Project: Lucene - Java
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: Index
>    Affects Versions: 2.0.0
>            Reporter: Christian Kohlschuetter
>            Priority: Minor
>         Attachments: ParallelReaderTest2.java, patch-allfields.diff

>
> Currently, the returned documents contain, for each field, the stored data 
> from all enclosed IndexReaders which contain the corresponding field.
> That is, a call to ParallelReader.document(doc).getFields(fieldName) returns 
> an array of possibly several Field objects. Since null entries are 
> disallowed, there is no way to determine to which IndexReader the field data 
> exactly belongs.
> On the other side, a search for a term on that field only yields results if 
> that term was contained in the *first* matching IndexReader which contained 
> the field.
> Thus, when merging the ParallelReader contents to another IndexWriter, the 
> indexed data does not correspond to the stored information.
> I am not sure whether this can be considered a bug (in some cases, this may 
> exactly be required). However I would like to see an option to change this 
> behaviour.
> I suggest a parameter for ParallelReader which specifies whether stored data 
> from all IndexReaders or only from the one which is repsonsible for the 
> field's indexed data will be returned by ParallelReader.document(int).
> Please find my proposed implementation attached, as well as a JUnit testcase.
