Each segment in Lucene is its own little index, and you can get the SegmentReader for it (use IndexReader.leaves() API from the full reader you opened), pass that to IndexSearcher, and search it.
But be careful: the "last" segment is an unpredictable thing, because the default merge policy merges segments out of order, so you can't know in general what documents are in it, how large it will be, etc. Mike McCandless http://blog.mikemccandless.com On Tue, Apr 18, 2017 at 6:07 AM, aravinth thangasami < aravinththangas...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi all, > *EarlyTerminatingSortingCollector* in lucene takes N documents from each > segment.
