I tried delaying the buffer allocation in BufferedIndexInput by using this clone() method: public Object clone() { BufferedIndexInput clone = (BufferedIndexInput)super.clone(); clone.buffer = null; clone.bufferLength = 0; clone.bufferPosition = 0; clone.bufferStart = getFilePointer(); return clone; } With this all term document iterators seem to be empty, no query in the test cases gives any results, for example TestDemo and TestBoolean2. As far as I can see, this delaying should work, but it doesn't and I have no idea why. End of quote from java-dev. Doug replied that at a glance this clone method looks good. Without this delayed buffer allocation, a reduced buffer size for TermDocs cannot be implemented easily. -- Configure bugmail: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
