Summary: Support for index/search large numeric numbers
Key: LUCENE-5596
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-5596
Project: Lucene - Core
Issue Type: New Feature
Reporter: Kevin Wang
Currently if an number is larger than Long.MAX_VALUE, we can't index/search
that in lucene as a number. For example, IPv6 address is an 128 bit number, so
we can't index that as a numeric field and do numeric range query etc.
It would be good to support BigInteger / BigDecimal
I've tried use BigInteger for IPv6 in Elasticsearch and that works fine, but
there are still lots of things to do
