Thanks I will give this a try, seems like it should work for my case. -----Original Message----- From: Uwe Schindler [mailto:u...@thetaphi.de] Sent: Tuesday, August 30, 2011 3:53 PM To: java-user@lucene.apache.org Subject: RE: No subsearcher in Lucene 3.3?
Hi, Use ReaderUtil from o.a.l.util package that does the recursive traversal of the reader tree. It has methods to solve this problems. You can cache the int[] start array that contains the starting document ids for each subreader. This makes it possible to use standard TopDocs based search without Collectors (which should not be required for your case) to remap the document ids. As for this issue you are not interested in stepping recursively into the reader tree to the lowest level (as non-optimized subindexes will also expand to multiple readers), so the only thing you would like to know is: on which direct subreader of MultiReader you are interested. For a quick lookup, an approach might be to iterate *once* before search over the direct subreaders of the MultiReader (without recursion), and sum up the maxDoc() (not numDocs!) return values. For each subreader (starting with 0) put the sum into a TreeMap (!!!) with the target index name or whatever you need to identify the subreader. You can then lookup the docid from the TopDocs object using TreeMap.floorEntry(docId).getValue() (Java 6 only).
