You still have a disk seek per doc if the index can't fit in memory (usually more costly than reading the fields) .

Why not use FieldCache?

If you are just retrieving your custom id and you have more stored fields (and they are not tiny) you certainly do want to use a field selector. I would suggest SetBasedFieldSelector.

Hi,

Why don't you consider to use FieldSelector? LoadFirstFieldSelector has an
ability to help you load only the first field in the document without
loading all the fields. After that, you can keep the whole document if you
like. It should help improve performance better.

yes it decrease the performance but the only solution.
I've spent many weeks to find best way to retrive my own IDs but find this
way as last one

now I am storing the ids in a BitSet structure and it's fast enough

public void collect(...){
idBitSet.set(Integer.valueOf(searcher.doc(id).get("MyOwnID")));

}

Hi,

The solution you suggested will definitely work but will definitely
slow
down my search by an order of magnitude. The problem I am trying to solve
is
performance, thats why I need the collection of IDs and not the whole
documents.

- thanks for the prompt reply.

yes if you extend your class from HitCollector and override the

collect()

mthod with following signature you can get IDs

public void collect(int id, float score)

Hi all,

Can I get just a list of document Ids given a search criteria ? To
elaborate here is my situation:

I store 20000 contracts in the file system index each with some
parameterName and Value. Given a search criterion -

(paramValue='draft').

I
need to get just an ArrayList of Strings containing contract Ids. I

dont

need the lucene documents, just the Ids.

Can this be done ?

-thanks
