Good evening everyone,
So, I apologize if this question has a simple answer (although I
hope it
does). I am trying to apply a filter to an IndexReader, so that the
reader
can only see documents that match the filter. The goal here is to
be able to
implement the 'terms' and 'termDocs' methods, with the 'filter
approved'
documents taken into consideration in putting together the stats.
I don't believe the FilterIndexReader class can do this (If it can
I don't
know how).
Any ideas would be appreciated.
To anyone on the general lucene mailing list sorry about the cross-
post.
Eric,
I've not done something like this myself, but I did a quick perusal
of the source code and tracked it into how it is used. There are a
few subclasses of FilterIndexReader out there. To do anything useful
with FilterIndexReader you must subclass it and provide your own
"filtering".
TestFilterIndexReader has some clues that might help you:
<http://svn.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/lucene/java/trunk/src/test/org/
apache/lucene/index/TestFilterIndexReader.java?view=markup>
I'm definitely interested in seeing how to go about implementing what
you're after, so keep us posted.
Erik
