As far as I know you will have to go throught the index and verify the 
field field (that is not an error) of each term:

                        IndexReader reader      = IndexReader.open("index");
                        TermEnum        te              = reader.terms(); 
                        
                        while ( te.next() ) {
                                
                                Term tt = te.term();
                                
                                String fieldOfTerm = tt.field();
                                
                                if ( fieldOfTerm.compareTo( "contents" ) ) {

                                        do_something_silly()...
                                
                                } else if ( fieldOfTerm.compareTo( "path" ) ) {

                                        do_something_silly2()...
                                }
                        }

Subject: How to get field contents


Hello,

I'd like to build a list with all values from a certain field that occur 
in an index. Looking at the API, there's a method getFieldNames(), but I 
already know the field name, I want to get a list of all the values. 
Also, I can enumerate fields by giving Terms, but a Term means I have to 
have the field name and value.

Can this be done?

Kind regards,

Ulrich
