Uwe Schindler updated LUCENE-4315:
----------------------------------
Attachment: LUCENE-4315.patch
Updated patch:
- size() is defined to return -1 if stat not available. FieldCacheImpl checked
for UOE, too - removed this.
> Minor fixes for Fields abstract class, TermVectorsWriter

>
> The Fields abstract class is a little bit inconsistent. It does not allow
> iterator() to throw IOException, but size() is allowed to do this. This is
> inconsistent, as looping through iterator always returns size without
> IOException.
> Also Fields.size() allows -1 as return value, but almost all implementation
> (only MultiFields and FieldFilteredAtomicReader may return -1) actually
> implement it in a very cheap way. This is simple statistics, we should
> rethink this:
> - TermVectorsWriter's basic merging (without optimization requires this
> information, also Terms.size())
> - We can default Fields.size() to count iterator, if not explicitely
> implemented. This method is called only by "IndexReader introspection) and
> TermVectors merging.
> We should maybe enforce size() for Fields to return a value >=0 (Preflex also
> knows its size!), and if the impl class does not have it (MultiFields,
> FieldFilteredAtomicReader, loop by supplying default impl).
> The current patch still allows -1 as return value and removes IOException
> from the signature.
