IndexWriter does everything IndexModifier does and more, except "deleteDocument(int doc)". Can we reach consensus on: 1 Should we deprecate IndexModifier before 3.0 and remove it in 3.0? 2 If so, do we have to add "deleteDocument(int doc)" to IndexWriter?
We know how to support "deleteDocument(int doc)" in IndexWriter even with concurrent merge (see discussion in LUCENE-847). The main concern, as Yonik pointed out, is how users can use it, since docids may change after segment merge. Is it possible to deprecate and remove IndexModifier without adding "deleteDocument(int doc)" to IndexWriter? Probably few users use IndexModifier.deleteDocument(int doc) since it's also the case that docids may change after segment merge. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
