             Summary: Deprecate Fields.getUniqueTermCount, remove 
AtomicReader.getUniqueTermCount
                 Key: LUCENE-4316
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-4316
             Project: Lucene - Core
          Issue Type: Task
            Reporter: Robert Muir


Spinoff from LUCENE-4315.

This was my comment there:

we should consider Fields.getUniqueTermCount,
which has a default implementation that sums across fields (preflex overrides).

This was necessary to have some way to access the segment-level unique term 
count for 3.x indexes,
which do not actually know this information per-field and override this method 
to provide it.

But there is no need to have this on AtomicReader (I think its way too expert, 
just get the Fields
and get it from there), and we can consider deprecating this in 4.x and 
removing it in trunk
alltogether as then someone can just use the field-level statistics.
