Maximum indexable data

Hi, Is there a limit for the amount of data indexable by a segment? If so is there a limit for searching? i.e. can I give MultiSearcher several indices that are all close to the maximum size. Thanks. -- Herman

I have the following problem. When I create a Fuzzyquery: FuzzyQuery fuzzy = new FuzzyQuery(new Term("categoryName", "test")); and add it to a new BooleanQuery finalQuery = new BooleanQuery(); finalQuery.add(fuzzy,false,false); fuzzy1.toString("contents"); gives me categoryName:test~ which

Moving an index from one Directory to another?

To improve speed for our application, I'm trying to move our index from the disk to a RAM directory when our database is opened, and move it back to the disk when the database is closed. The code looks something like this: -open- Directory diskDirectory = FSDirectory.getDirectory(index

Re: What type of indexer is Lucene? Question reworded.

You should read the Lucene FAQ http://www.lucene.com/cgi-bin/faq/faqmanager.cgi ). Most of your questions (over the past few days) are already answered there. -B - Original Message - From: "Melissa Mifsud" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Lucene User" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, March 0

In http://www.lucene.com/publications.html you will find many answers to your questions. The papers "An Object-Oriented Architecture for Text Retrieval" and "Optimizations for Dynamic Inverted Index Maintenance" will be especially helpful for your understanding of Lucene. -Original Message---

Re: What type of indexer is Lucene? Question reworded.

Melissa: These questions are answered in the Lucene FAQ, which is located at http://www.lucene.com/cgi-bin/faq/faqmanager.cgi However, if I correctly understand your fundamental question, my understanding is that Lucene basically uses the vector model of IR. Joshua [EMAIL PROTECTED] Per Obs

Lucene throws an ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException() if the first term in my query string is a stopWord

Dear Lucene Users Lucene throws an ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException() if the first term in my query string is a stopWord. Why is it so ? I'm making AND as the default mode of search. So I'm adding an AND operator between each term of my query. That is if my query is 'cats dogs' I'm

What type of indexer is Lucene? Question reworded.

Hi again! I should really reword my question as follows: On which criteria are relevant documents chosen given a particular query and once retrieved, how are these documents ranked? The techniques by which this is done will then determine what type of IR model Lucene implements. Thanks agai

RE: Support for russian morphology in Lucene

Real morphology (finding the root for all the forms of a word) in Russian might not be that easy since in Russian you have both prefixes (aspect) and suffixes (case, number, conjugation) that inflect a word. But, there are already efforts to write stemmers (suffix strippers) for Russian following
