Hi John, Just continuing from an earlier question where I asked you how to handle strings like "from:fred flintston*" (sorry I have lost the original email). You advised me to write my own BooleanQuery and add to it Prefix- / Term- / Phrase- Querys as appropriate. I have done so, but am having

Can we update a field on the current index

Hi, I want to modify a field on the current index. Can it be done? For what I have heard that we cannot update the index . It has to be reindexed by deleting and then indexing again. Thanks, Aditi

Yes you must delete the entire document and then re-index a new one, to update a single Field. There is some work underway, or at least a Jira issue opened, towards improving this situation, here: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1231 But it will be some time before that'

Best practice for updating an index when reindexing is not an option

Hi. Currently using Lucene 2.3.2 in a tomcat webapp. We have an action configured that performs reindexing on our staging server. However, our live server can not reindex since it does not have the necessary dtd files to process the xml. To update the index on the live server we perform a subvers

Suppose I create a SpanNearQuery phrase with the terms "long range missiles" and some slop factor. Each term is actually a BoostingTermQuery. Currently, the score computed by SpanNearQuery.SpanScorer is based on the sloppy frequency of the terms and their weights (this is fine). But even though eac

Re: Best practice for updating an index when reindexing is not an option

Why does SubversionUpdate require shutting down the IndexSearcher? What goes wrong? You might want to switch instead to rsync. A Lucene index is fundamentally write once, so, syncing changes over should simply be copying over new files and removing now-deleted files. You won't be able

Re: Deletions

Hi John, In case of deletions, it is just a delayed delete. In other words, the doc is just marked as deleted in the deletable file, leaving a void in the numbering of docs. The actual shifting of document ids happens only when you optimize the index. In that case the deletables file is used to ph
