I was wonder if there is a method to query the highest value of a field, perhaps something like:
IndexReader.maxTerm('uid')
What would the purpose of an auto-generated UID be?
But no, Lucene does not generate UID's for you. Documents are numbered internally by their insertion order. This number changes, however, when documents are deleted in the middle and the index is optimized.

Is there a way to auto-generate uid in Lucene? Even it is just a way to query the highest uid and let the application add one to it will do.
Thanks.
