Hi: Is there some way to read only 1 field value from an index given a docID?
From the current API, in order to get a field from given a docID, I would call: IndexSearcher.document(docID) which in turn reads in all fields from the disk. Here is my problem: After the search, I have a set of docIDs. For each document, I have a unique string identifier. At this point I only need these identifiers but with the above API, I am forced to read the entire row of fields for each document in the search result, which in my case can be very large. Is there an alternative? I am thinking more on the lines of a call: Field[] getFields(int docID,String fieldName); Thanks -John --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
