I am testing for Lucene for a project and I am new in Lucene and I have a question. I read the documentation and searched the mailing test but I did not find any anwser for my question.
My problem:
I have to 2 indeces (I made a simple test example): First index is storing information about books and the second is storing information about authors. Both indeces have a field named number, which is a unique indentifier for an author. If these 2 indeces are tables in a database I would normally join tables, where number is the key of the author table and the foreign key of book table. Now I want to do same with Lucene. I used the MultiSearcher and I get 2 hits (one from book index and the other from author table), if I use an unique number. I think this is normal behaviour, but I am not sure. Can you give me an answer, if this is correct ? What can I do to solve this problem (The only idea I have for the moment is to determine which terms are for the one index and which are for the other and split them. Then make a search on one index and get the unique numbers of this search result. Then I will use this unique numbers with the other query parameters for the next search in the other index) ?
