Uwe Schindler updated LUCENE-4089:
----------------------------------
Fix Version/s: (was: 4.3)
4.4
> fix or document termsIndexInterval/Divisor for 4.0
> --------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: LUCENE-4089
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-4089
> Project: Lucene - Core
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: core/index
> Reporter: Robert Muir
> Fix For: 4.4
>
>
> There are a few parameters on IndexWriterConfig/DirectoryReader that are
> going to be confusing unless we do something about it: at least documentation
> at the minimum:
> * IWC.termsIndexInterval: really a codec parameter, actually ignored by 4.0's
> default impl (BlockTree)
> * IWC.readerDivisor/DirectoryReader.divisor: really two things, if its -1 it
> means "don't load terms index", and this is respected by the current impls.
> Otherwise, it means "sample the terms index", and this is also actually
> ignored by 4.0's default impl (BlockTree)
> I think people will be confused if they set these things and they do nothing.
> As far as fixing, I took a stab at this and its an annoyingly big change. But
> this is the rough sketch of one idea i had so far:
> * remove interval: its only applicable if you customize codec and select a
> different terms index/dict impl anyway, so you can just pass this to FixedGap
> or whatever yourself.
> * divisor: generalize this into something simple like a Map<String,String> of
> codec "parameters" that you set on IWC/IR. split divisor from "don't load
> terms index". define these as constants where they belong. I got unhappy here
> in the "splitting" part because I wanted the divisor part in
> TermsIndexReaderBase, but that doesnt extend FieldsProducer (where i wanted
> the "don't load" part) and wrap the terms dict, instead its backwards and
> terms dict wraps the TermsIndexReaderBase... maybe we should fix that too? I
> think this confusing the way it is but I didnt look at how difficult this
> would be.
