Could you be more precise?
The searcher has an existing index.
The indexer found an UPDATED document and then adds it to a new index and pushes that new index over to the searcher.
The searcher then reloads and when someone performs a search BOTH documents could show up (including the stale document).
I can't do a delete() on the searcher because the indexer doesn't have the entire index as the searcher.
Therefore I wanted to group by the same document ID but this doesn't seem possible. This should suppress the stale document and prefer the newer doc.
Is this possible with the new API? Seems like a huge drawback to lucene
right now.
In case you can define another field that defines what is a duplicate by having the same value for duplicates, you can use it as one of the SortField's for sorting.
I have this duplicate field...
