The > > exception is this: > > if (termEnum.term() == null) { > throw new RuntimeException ("no terms in field " + field); > } > > I'll attach a change suggested by Yonik Seeley that removes this exception. > > Also, the if-condition above is incomplete anyway, so currently the exception > is not always thrown (as termEnum .term() might well be != null but point to > a > term in a different field already) -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
