Hi Mike,

Unfortunately you will have to delete the old doc, then reindex a new doc, in order to change any payloads in the document's Tokens.

This issue:

    https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1231

which is still in progress, could make updating stored (but not indexed) fields a much lower cost operation, but that's not for sure and it's not clear when that issue will be done.

Michael Busch's Apache Con (2006/7??) presentation summarized with the bullet

"Per-document Payloads – updateable"

Is making a document 'updatable' (in _some_ way) something still seen as a long term goal for Lucene?

As far as implementation is concerned, if a stored (not indexed) field may be updatable with 1231, is there some difficulty with making payloads, which from my understanding are attributed to a posting of an indexed field, updatable. I guess they ultimately equate to the same thing - i.e. using a stored field to hold the document's "payload", but it would be an extra field to load.

Antony
