I've got your point Val, thanks. At least we can consider this issue during Ignite 3 development.

Folks,

This is a usability issue of the current API, which I don't think we can
easily fix right now without breaking compatibility.

There are two separate cases.

First - the value class is a user's POJO. This one is straightforward - we
analyze annotations and create indexes based on that. The user has full
control.

Second - the value class is a "first-class citizen", i.e. primitive,
String, UUID, or similar. In this case, there are no annotations
(obviously), so we have to implicitly create an index for the value itself.
String type is a special case, as a user might want a full-text index for
it as well. So we *additionally* create one.

We can't just remove the aforementioned code, because there is no explicit
way to create a full-text index for the String value type. I guess such a
way can be provided by introducing additional configuration property (or
properties), but frankly, it will only complicate things even more. The use
case is not that popular, and the overhead of a single index is not that
big, so I don't think it worth it.

I would not change anything here.

Hi, Ilya.

Could you please provide a reproducer of wrong behavior? Looks like I'm
missing smth in your idea. There is my code [1] with String class as value,
and TextQuery works correctly without the annotation QueryTextField. And I
expect this behavior.

case of plane strings as cache values (instead of pojo class from my
example) lucene index would be created no matter if we ask for it or not
It's not correct. If you create cache CacheConfiguration<Integer, String>
it will not create LuceneIndex, as there is no table with String as value
class. You can check it with my code just replace Long and String
classes in cache definition.

Thanks for feedback Maksim, but let me disagree with you.

As far as i understand

CacheConfiguration.setIndexedTypes(Long.class, String.class);

Is just the hint for Ignite about data that should be indexed, but what
kind of index should be created depends on our configuration. For
example:
public class StringValue implements Serializable {

      @QuerySqlField(index = true)
      private final long id;

      @QueryTextField
      private final String name;

}

In this case i explicitly define that i need text/lucene index for name
field via marking it with @QueryTextField annotation. Doing so i'm able
to perform text queries:

cache.query(new TextQuery(StringValue.class, "value"))
              .getAll()
              .forEach(e -> System.out.println(e.toString()));

Without @QueryTextField annotation query will return nothing.

So setIndexedTypes(..) is just not enough for proper lucene index
initiation. But in case of plane strings as cache values (instead pf
pojo class from my example) lucene index would be created no matter if
we ask for it or not:

// IgniteH2Indexing#queryLocalText(..)

if (tbl != null && tbl.luceneIndex() != null) {
      Long qryId = runningQueryManager().register(qry, TEXT, schemaName,
true, null);

      try {
          // We will reach this line if we use String as cache values or
if we used @QueryTextField annotation
          return tbl.luceneIndex().query(qry.toUpperCase(), filters,
limit);
      } finally {
          runningQueryManager().unregister(qryId, null);
      }
}

Hi, Ilya! AFAIK, to create LuceneIndex it's required to do this:

CacheConfiguration.setIndexedTypes(Long.class, String.class);

It's pretty straightforward, a user wants the value class to be
indexed.
If
you just create a simple cache (without entities, indexed types) with
String.class as value it won't be indexed, as indexes created per
table,
not per cache.

Do I miss something?

Hi, All.

According to https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IGNITE-14805 there
is
default index creation for caches with String values:


if (type().valueClass() == String.class) {
       try {
           luceneIdx = new GridLuceneIndex(idx.kernalContext(),
tbl.cacheName(), type);
       }
       catch (IgniteCheckedException e1) {
           throw new IgniteException(e1);
       }
}


Does this really necessary?  What about disabling this feature by
default and enabling it only by demand (to reduce unnecessary
performance hit even if its not very huge)? I guess additional option
could be introduced to do so.

Any ideas?
