Hi ,
I have 4 query search fields. case 1 : if i use one search field to make a query filter and then use the query filter to search on other 3 fields so as to reduce the searching docs subset. case 2: i use all query parameters using boolean query , whole of index will be searched. Which of the two approach will give better performance.Or is there ne other approach to do this . Also Can we use subset of documents , for searching . Lets say I have hash map of P1 -1,2,3,4 P2 - 3,4,5 P3-7,5,3 Now I have an documents in lucene index stored as 1-P1 2-P1 3-P1,P2,P3 4-P1,P2 5-P2,P3 7-P3 .. .. when i search docs with P2 I get 3,4,5 Now I want my search to b restricted to just 3,4,5 doc only. where by I can search only these docs for further parameters. 1. How to go abt it. 2. Is there any other seraching mechanism I should use, or Lucene is better fit? 3. should i keep my hash map also in lucene indexes and is then thr a method to link it to another lucene indexes. regards, Suman
