I'm considering building out an index that will flatten a data structure, such that some Document "A" will have Fields 1,2 and 3. Fields 1 and 2 are indexed/tokenized field. Field 3 is indexed, and will contain many discrete values (up to possibly 5000).
Couple of questions: 1. Does the DEFAULT_MAX_FIELD_LENGTH on IndexWriter come into play for Field 3? Field 3 values are added to the document individually, there's just a bunch of them. 2. Is MaxFieldLength a consideration for this? Any guidance before I go through the trouble of building the index would be greatly appreciated. thanks, - j
