Right: what i'm trying to tell you is that offsets and positions is not an index-wide setting for a field: its per-document. I think all the tools you are using to check these values are not doing it correctly: 1. DumpIndex is wrongly using values from the Document returned by IndexReader.document(), but that doesn't and never did retrieve these values (it would be 2 extra disk seeks per document to figure out the term vector flags) 2. I havent looked at Luke, but its probably printing the "global" bits from FieldInfos. It used to be that we wrote some bits for these options, I don't ever know what the purpose was since these options can be controlled on/off at a per-document level: they make no sense. Because of this we stopped writing these bits in 3.6 (we only write into FieldInfos if the field has any term vectors at all), and thats probably whats confusing you there. Again, if you really want to validate that a specific document has offsets/positions in its term vectors, you need to check that specific document with IndexReader.getTermFreqVector, there is no other way, since this can be controlled on a per-document basis for a field. -- lucidimagination.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: java-user-unsubscr...@lucene.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: java-user-h...@lucene.apache.org
