David Smiley commented on LUCENE-7875:
--------------------------------------
New patch. I didn't love having this new MultiLeafReader class after all for
just these few methods that felt ad-hoc (i.e. why just these when maybe should
have a bunch more?). I moved getMergedFieldInfos and getIndexedFields off to
FieldInfos which is a suitable place for them. I made MultiBits public and
moved getLiveDocs there. I also removed MultiBits.getMatchingSub (with
SubResult class) which wasn't being used.
Random question that occurred to me: if getMergedFieldInfos is given a
LeafReader, shouldn't we just return it's FieldInfos?

> MultiFields.java has a bunch of static methods that provide a single
> LeafReader's view over a bunch of things.
> These could perhaps go to ReaderUtil:
> * {{Bits getLiveDocs(IndexReader reader)}}
> * {{FieldInfos getMergedFieldInfos(IndexReader reader)}} (removing "Merged"
> in its name which seems inconsistent, or replace with "Multi")
> These could perhaps go to MultiTerms:
> * {{Collection<String> getIndexedFields(IndexReader reader)}}
> * {{Terms getTerms(IndexReader r, String field)}}
> * {{PostingsEnum getTermDocsEnum(IndexReader r, String field, BytesRef term)}}
> Finally, the MultiFields instance itself, implementing {{Fields}} along with
> the static utility method {{Fields getFields(IndexReader reader)}} could
> perhaps remain until we can finally remove it (or move to a test classpath or
> something) when there is no more purpose for Fields.java.
