Selective field loading ----------------------- Key: LUCENE-558 URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-558 Project: Lucene - Java Type: New Feature
Components: Index Versions: 2.0 Environment: All Reporter: Chuck Williams Provides a new api, IndexReader.document(int doc, String[] fields). A document containing only the specified fields is created. The other fields of the document are not loaded, although unfortunately uncompressed strings still have to be scanned because the length information in the index is for UTF-8 encoded chars and not bytes. This is useful for applications that need quick access to a small subset of the fields. It can be used in conjunction with or for some uses instead of ParallelReader. This is a much smaller change for a simpler use case than Lucene-545. No existing API's are affected. All the tests pass and new tests are added to verify the feature. -- 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]
