             Summary: join: don't expect all filters to be FixedBitSet instances
                 Key: LUCENE-5092
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-5092
             Project: Lucene - Core
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: modules/join
            Reporter: Adrien Grand
            Assignee: Adrien Grand
            Priority: Minor


The join module throws exceptions when the parents filter isn't a FixedBitSet. 
The reason is that the join module relies on prevSetBit to find the first child 
document given a parent ID.

As suggested by Paul Elschot on LUCENE-5081, we could fix it by exposing 
methods in the iterators to iterate backwards. When the join modules gets an 
iterator which isn't able to iterate backwards, it would just need to dump its 
content into another DocIdSet that supports backward iteration, FixedBitSet for 
example.
