Mark Miller updated LUCENE-831:
-------------------------------
Attachment: LUCENE-831.patch
I've added your SortField constructor Uwe.
I've also switched things to what I proposed.
You can access a ValueSource from SegmentReaders with getValueSource. You get a
USO Exception on non SegmentReaders with the hint to use
getSequentialSubReaders.
The built in FieldCache usage uses this new API instead, allowing caching per
segment without global caching keyed by IndexReader. Its hardwired at the
moment, but you would be able to set it on IndexReader open.
There is a back compat CacheByReaderUninverterValueSource that caches in a
WeakHashMap by IndexReader and Uninverter (Uninverter is actually keyed by the
Parser it wraps). This
works as a Singleton. Deprecated code, like the FieldCache uses this. You
wouldn't want to straddle both API's, because for identical types / uninversion
you would duplicate data (eg if you asked both APIs for the same data type with
the same parser/uninverter and field, you would get twice the data in RAM).
This method still works with MultiReaders, and so nicely solves back compat
with regards to only allowing access to ValueSource from the SegmentReader.
You can also set a ValueSource on a SortField. This would override the
ValueSource used at sort time to one provided. There is a convenience class
called CacheByReaderValueSource that caches
by Reader, field, type, key.
I think that solves all three needs (and my caching concerns) in a pretty nice
way. Patch is not done, but all tests now pass except for TrieRange (have not
run back compat tests yet due to Trie failure - havnt looked into yet either).

> Motivation:
> 1) Complete overhaul the API/implementation of "FieldCache" type things...
> a) eliminate global static map keyed on IndexReader (thus
> eliminating synch block between completley independent IndexReaders)
> b) allow more customization of cache management (ie: use
> expiration/replacement strategies, disk backed caches, etc)
> c) allow people to define custom cache data logic (ie: custom
> parsers, complex datatypes, etc... anything tied to a reader)
> d) allow people to inspect what's in a cache (list of CacheKeys) for
> an IndexReader so a new IndexReader can be likewise warmed.
> e) Lend support for smarter cache management if/when
> IndexReader.reopen is added (merging of cached data from subReaders).
> 2) Provide backwards compatibility to support existing FieldCache API with
> the new implementation, so there is no redundent caching as client code
> migrades to new API.
