Complete overhaul of FieldCache API/Implementation --------------------------------------------------
Key: LUCENE-831 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-831 Project: Lucene - Java Issue Type: Improvement Components: Search Reporter: Hoss Man Motivation: 1) Complete overhaul the API/implementation of "FieldCache" type things... a) eliminate global static map keyed on IndexReader (thus eliminating synch block between completley independent IndexReaders) b) allow more customization of cache management (ie: use expiration/replacement strategies, disk backed caches, etc) c) allow people to define custom cache data logic (ie: custom parsers, complex datatypes, etc... anything tied to a reader) d) allow people to inspect what's in a cache (list of CacheKeys) for an IndexReader so a new IndexReader can be likewise warmed. e) Lend support for smarter cache management if/when IndexReader.reopen is added (merging of cached data from subReaders). 2) Provide backwards compatibility to support existing FieldCache API with the new implementation, so there is no redundent caching as client code migrades to new API. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
