RE: Deleting documents

I think I've come across the same problem. If you have an indexer that adds docs and also deletes docs as it goes (use case: it's updating old docs or adding new ones) it seems that you always get an exception like this thrown from IndexReader.delete(). java.io.IOException: Index locked for write

RE: Search result ordering question

Is this question still pending? Well I haven't tried it but DateFilter might be what you're looking for: http://jakarta.apache.org/lucene/docs/api/org/apache/lucene/search/DateF ilter.html You could also add a field that's a kind of enumerated indicating how recent the doc is. You add a field "w

Hi, I guess my question is really regarding characters like &,%, $,#,- etc. (- is used for exclusion, for eg) I remember testing and with a standard analyzer and finding that it didn't quite work. Is there any reason these charactwers won't work with a standard analyzer? The stop table for Standa

Search result ordering question

I've been using Lucene a bit, and find it very flexible and fast. However, I need to order search results by date (or, equally, document id); I've looked a bit into (re)writing a collect method without any luck. I'm not programming Java too much, so I'm not getting any way with the (few) hints I

jdk 1.1.8?
