Uwe Schindler updated LUCENE-1712:
----------------------------------
Attachment: LUCENE-1712.patch
Some updates:
- remove the limitation of the precisionStep to the value size (32 or 64). To
index a non-trie-encoded numeric field, you can simply use Integer.MAX_VALUE or
any other value>=64 as precStep. The lower limit of precStep is 1.
- add a test for 64 bit values with recommended precStep=6
- add simple test for unlimited precStep as above
I will commit this shortly.

> This is a spinoff from LUCENE-1701.
> A user using Numeric* should not need to understand what's
> "under the hood" in order to do their indexing & searching.
> They should be able to simply:
> {code}
> doc.add(new NumericField("price", 15.50);
> {code}
> And have a decent default precisionStep selected for them.
> Actually, if we add ctors to NumericField for each of the supported
> types (so the above code works), we can set the default per-type. I
> think we should do that?
> 4 for int and 6 for long was proposed as good defaults.
> The default need not be "perfect", as advanced users can always
> optimize their precisionStep, and for users experiencing slow
> RangeQuery performance, NumericRangeQuery with any of the defaults we
> are discussing will be much faster.
