Tim Smith commented on LUCENE-1821:
-----------------------------------

on "internal lucene ids"

right now (2.4) i always know what docids map to what IndexReader (always the 
top level)
i don't have a problem breaking that assumption, as long as i have the context 
to map docids between spaces (sub reader to top level and back (mabye even a 
couple more levels in between))  

I opened this ticket soley because in the Scorer API there is no presented way 
to actually do this mapping between spaces (short of the "hacks" i discussed 
way above)
I have no problem whatsoever in the changing of what "space" docids exist in, 
as long as i can get to and from the top level to this space
I also have no problem if how to do this mapping changes between releases (as 
long as its documented)

> Weight.scorer() not passed doc offset for "sub reader"

>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1821
>             Project: Lucene - Java
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Search
>    Affects Versions: 2.9
>            Reporter: Tim Smith
>
> Now that searching is done on a per segment basis, there is no way for a 
> Scorer to know the "actual" doc id for the document's it matches (only the 
> relative doc offset into the segment)
> If using caches in your scorer that are based on the "entire" index (all 
> segments), there is now no way to index into them properly from inside a 
> Scorer because the scorer is not passed the needed offset to calculate the 
> "real" docid
> suggest having Weight.scorer() method also take a integer for the doc offset
> Abstract Weight class should have a constructor that takes this offset as 
> well as a method to get the offset
> All Weights that have "sub" weights must pass this offset down to created 
> "sub" weights
