Hi

If you are working with trunk, then I believe that ValUes is what you're
looking for. They allow you to store values at the document level, and then
read then during search either from disk or RAM. They are also segment
based.

I'm not sure how ValueSource is used (I've never used it myself and I'm not
near the code to check), but what I had in mind is something similar to
Collector.setNextReader which allows Collectors to use, e.g. a float[] for
that IndexReader (hint, look at FieldCache).

If ValueSource or ValueSourceQuery can do that, then you could use that
mechanism. If not, you can move to do the scoring at the Collector level.

Sorry for the shallow responses - I'm answering from my mobile and won't be
near the code potentially until next week. Perhaps someone else on the list
can give you some concrete examples. If not, plz continue to ask questions
and I'll do my best to answer ;).
