Based on a previous reply , I went through the java docs and came up with
public class PreFilterCollector extends HitCollector {
final BitVector bits = new BitVector(reader.maxDoc());
java.util.HashMap<String,Integer> statemap = new
java.util.HashMap<String,Integer>() ;
public void collect(int id, float score) {
bits.set(id);
}
public java.util.HashMap<String,Integer> getStateCounts() {
try {
int k = bits.size();
int j = 0;
for (int i =0; i < k; i++) {
if (!bits.get(i))
continue;
Document doc = reader.document(i);
j++;
String state = doc.get("state"); // we assume one
state for now
if (statemap.containsKey(state)) {
statemap.put(state,statemap.get(state) + 1);
} else {
statemap.put(state,1);
}
}
} catch (Exception e) {
throw new RuntimeException(e);
}
return statemap;
}
}
But, I have the following questions
1. My code first collects all the doc ids and then iterates over them
to collect field info. I did this becasue,
http://lucene.apache.org/java/docs/api/org/apache/lucene/search/HitCollector.html
says "This is called in an inner search loop. For good search
performance, implementations of this method should not call
Searchable.doc(int) or IndexReader.document(int) on every document
number encountered"
Have I misunderstood and doing this wrongly ?
2. Would your code be faster (under what circumstances) ?
3. One problem i see with my current solution is that it accesses
every doc of the result set.
One of the previous responses pointed to a solution in
http://www.mail-archive.com/java-dev@lucene.apache.org/msg00034.html
After reading it, to me it looked like that solution won't be any
better. (Looks like it walks values of terms that do not even occur in
teh current search result set). Have I got this right ?
I am a newbee to lucene. Thanks for all the replies. Appreciate it very much.
