: How easy is to add new fields to the documents in the index? : Suppose that today I can search for book title and decide that including the : author in the search would be a good idea. How easy is to do that with : lucene?
very. whenevery you add a document, you specify what fields that document has -- those fields don't have to be the same as any other document in the past, even if there is a field with that name in some documents, but it has differnet properties (ie stored/unstored tokenized/untokenized) that's irrelevant to any documents you add going forward. modifying exiting documents however (ie; to add an author field to all of your existing "book" records) is not currently possible. -Hoss --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
