Ishan Chattopadhyaya commented on SOLR-5944: -------------------------------------------- {quote} Specifically: when I tried to remove it, I started seeing NPEs from SolrIndexSearcher.decorateDocValueFields in various tests: {quote} I tried to chase this bug down, and I think it has led me to some learnings regarding the explicit vs dynamic fields (why dynamic fields are any different) issue. {quote} The reason for this is that when a document is created, DV fields for all explicit fields are created. But when a non-existent dynamic field is attempted to be updated subsequently, then the underlying DV field doesn't exist. {quote} I think I missed the fact that "DV fields for all explicit fields are created" *only if* they have a default value set on them. Otherwise, explicit fields are no different from dynamic fields. So, therefore, I think we should be checking if the field exists or not, irrespective of explicit or dynamic. And if the field doesn't exist, we should just delegate to a regular atomic update. Do you think it makes sense? > Support updates of numeric DocValues > ------------------------------------ > > Key: SOLR-5944 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-5944 > Project: Solr > Issue Type: New Feature > Reporter: Ishan Chattopadhyaya > Assignee: Shalin Shekhar Mangar > Attachments: DUP.patch, SOLR-5944.patch, SOLR-5944.patch, > SOLR-5944.patch, SOLR-5944.patch, SOLR-5944.patch, SOLR-5944.patch, > SOLR-5944.patch, SOLR-5944.patch, SOLR-5944.patch, SOLR-5944.patch, > SOLR-5944.patch, SOLR-5944.patch, SOLR-5944.patch, SOLR-5944.patch, > SOLR-5944.patch, SOLR-5944.patch, SOLR-5944.patch, SOLR-5944.patch, > SOLR-5944.patch, SOLR-5944.patch, SOLR-5944.patch, SOLR-5944.patch, > SOLR-5944.patch, SOLR-5944.patch, SOLR-5944.patch, SOLR-5944.patch, > SOLR-5944.patch, SOLR-5944.patch, SOLR-5944.patch, SOLR-5944.patch, > SOLR-5944.patch, SOLR-5944.patch, SOLR-5944.patch, SOLR-5944.patch, > SOLR-5944.patch, SOLR-5944.patch, SOLR-5944.patch, SOLR-5944.patch, > SOLR-5944.patch, SOLR-5944.patch, SOLR-5944.patch, SOLR-5944.patch, > SOLR-5944.patch, SOLR-5944.patch, SOLR-5944.patch, SOLR-5944.patch, > SOLR-5944.patch, SOLR-5944.patch, SOLR-5944.patch, SOLR-5944.patch, > SOLR-5944.patch, SOLR-5944.patch, SOLR-5944.patch, SOLR-5944.patch, > SOLR-5944.patch, SOLR-5944.patch, SOLR-5944.patch, SOLR-5944.patch, > SOLR-5944.patch, SOLR-5944.patch, SOLR-5944.patch, > TestStressInPlaceUpdates.eb044ac71.beast-167-failure.stdout.txt, > TestStressInPlaceUpdates.eb044ac71.beast-587-failure.stdout.txt, > TestStressInPlaceUpdates.eb044ac71.failures.tar.gz, defensive-checks.log.gz, > demo-why-dynamic-fields-cannot-be-inplace-updated-first-time.patch, > hoss.62D328FA1DEA57FD.fail.txt, hoss.62D328FA1DEA57FD.fail2.txt, > hoss.62D328FA1DEA57FD.fail3.txt, hoss.D768DD9443A98DC.fail.txt, > hoss.D768DD9443A98DC.pass.txt > > > LUCENE-5189 introduced support for updates to numeric docvalues.
