Uwe Schindler commented on LUCENE-3828:
---------------------------------------
bq. Seems like the best way to deleteByDocId in the IndexWriter is to somehow
express it as a custom Query (rather than trying to freeze IndexWriter).
The problem is IndexWriter executes query deletes per segment (unfortunately
with AtomicReaderContext.docBase==0). I wanted to fix that already, but thats
not easy with IW.
> Impossible to delete doc by docId, undeleteAll or setNorm(docId..)

> Key: LUCENE-3828
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-3828
> Project: Lucene - Java
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: core/index
> Affects Versions: 4.0
> Reporter: Andrzej Bialecki
>
> It appears that there is a major regression in the trunk API. It's no longer
> possible to:
> 1. delete document by internal id (even though you can iterate and retrieve
> docs by internal ids)
> 2. undelete all deleted (but not yet reclaimed) documents
> 3. set norm value on a specific document (by internal id)
> The lack of #1 means that you have to use delete by term or by query, which
> in turn means that now we require that documents have a unique primary key
> (otherwise you won't be able to delete a particular document that shares
> terms with other docs). IMHO this item is critical and should be fixed.
> The lack of #2 might not be critical but it still comes handy in some
> situations.
> The lack of #3 means that you have to update the whole doc if you just want
> to correct one field, which might be ok for the time being - it's a special
> case of not having updateable fields in general. But it's quite inconvenient
> if all you want to do is to adjust a weight of doc without reindexing,
> something that is possible with 3.x.
