The problem I am having is stated below, I don't know how to
add the minDoc and maxDoc values to the index while keeping backward
compatibility.
Unfortunately, TermInfo file format just isn't extensible at the
moment, so I think for now you'll have to break backward compatibility
if you really want to store these new fields in the _X.tis/.tii files.
EG here is another recent example of wanting to alter what's stored in
TermInfo:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1278
For flexible indexing we clearly need to fix this, so that any
"plugin" in the indexing chain could stuff whatever it wants into the
TermInfo, and also override how TermInfo is read/written. Even the
things we now store in TermInfo should be optional. EG say you choose
not to store locations (prx) for a given field. Then, you would not
need the long proxPointer.
