getAverageValue

                 Key: LUCENE-1681
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1681
             Project: Lucene - Java
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Search
    Affects Versions: 2.4.1, 2.4, 2.3.2, 2.3.1, 2.3, 2.2, 2.3.3, 2.4.2, 2.9, 3.0
            Reporter: Simon Willnauer
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 2.9


org.apache.lucene.search.function.DocValues offers 3 public (optional) methods 
to access value statistics like min, max and average values of the internal 
values. A call to one of the methods will result in an infinite loop. The 
internal counter is not incremented. 
I added a testcase, javadoc and a slightly different implementation to it. I 
guess this is not breaking any back compat. as a call to those methodes would 
have caused an infinite loop anyway.
I changed the return value of all of those methods to Float.NaN if the 
DocValues implementation does not contain any values.

It might be considerable to fix this in 2.4.2 and 2.3.3
