Martijn van Groningen commented on LUCENE-4068: ----------------------------------------------- Yes... someone could delete a parent without deleting its children. I guess that this a responsibility of the application using Lucene. Right now for updating the deleteDocuments(query) method should be used, before using updateDocuments(...) / addDocuments(...) The updateDocuments method that uses the delQuery could include a ToChildBlockJoinQuery instance (as part of a boolean query) that would matches to the children documents (in case a parent document were to be deleted). However this logic would then still be the apps responsibility. > Improve IW#addDocuments(...) javadoc > ------------------------------------ > > Key: LUCENE-4068 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-4068 > Project: Lucene - Java > Issue Type: Improvement > Affects Versions: 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5, 3.6, 4.0 > Reporter: Martijn van Groningen > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 4.0, 3.6.1 > > Attachments: LUCENE-4068.patch, LUCENE-4068.patch > > > Improve IW#addDocuments(...) javadoc. > Describer how blocks can be used regarding to index updates. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
