We have a relatively large (300,000+ documents) set of XML files to index. The files themselves are articles broken up by journal and decade so that users can restrict their search to specific journals and year ranges. Under our old search engine this was done by creating a seperate index for each journal/decade and then creating a "virtual index" which would search the smaller indexes and put the results together (with scoring preserved).
In Lucene it looks like I would have to build one large index and do something like this: title:test && (journal:myjournal && (year:1990 || year:1991 || year:1992 || year:1993 || year:1994 || year:1995 || year:1996 || year:1997 || year:1998 || year:1999)) Is there a better way to do this? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
