Is it possible to delete a document from the index, but not the
physical
file. And also I'm wondering what the functions are that will alter
the
physical files being indexed.
Documents are not deleted until you optimize the index. Perhaps they
are deleted at merge time too? Until that point documents deleted are
marked in a seperate file.
Is there a specific problem behind your question? There might be
alternative solutions.
On a side note: what is the best way to look up information like
this so I
don't have to bug the java-user mailing list for simple questions
like this?
I tried googling, but didn't seem to get the information I wanted.
Thanks!
Generally I'd suggest getting the source code and follow it to see
what happends. If you need documentation then there are some links here:
