Michael McCandless commented on LUCENE-1084: -------------------------------------------- Yeah, the intention here was that you specify LIMITED or UNLIMITED enum parameter on creating the IW, and then change the actual limit using setMaxFieldLength. But I agree it'd be cleaner if you could actually just set the limit (once) on construction. I think if we stopped subclassing from Parameter (we don't really need Serializable here?), and made the ctor public, then you could pass in "new MaxFieldLength(100000)" to make your own limit? > increase default maxFieldLength? > -------------------------------- > > Key: LUCENE-1084 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1084 > Project: Lucene - Java > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Index > Affects Versions: 2.2 > Reporter: Daniel Naber > Assignee: Michael McCandless > Fix For: 2.4 > > Attachments: LUCENE-1084.patch > > > To my understanding, Lucene 2.3 will easily index large documents.
