Hi Group, I understand that the process of updating a document in lucene index is to delete the document and add it again. But I do not want to delete the document.
I was thinking of a approach where I can create a new index with only the fields I want to update. And then may be I can some how merge these two indexes. I I read about multiple searcher but that applies where you have two index containing different documents. I think parallel reader might help me here but was unable to understand clearly as I am very new to lucene. What do you think my approach should be? Nilesh
