Here's an example of how everything could work with dynamic fields (apologies if it it overlaps with examples already given by others in this thread) :
<fieldType name="point" fieldSuffix="_latlon" .../> // the subFields for the points end in _latlon <field name="home" type="point"/> <dynamicField name="*_latlon" type="tdouble" indexed="true" stored="false"/> // And we also want to allow point dynamic fields <dynamicField name="*_point" type="point"/> // Note: Grant make point more generic than geo, so it's 0 and 1 instead of lat and lon // OK, so now the indexed fields for home would be home__0_latlon home__1_latlon // And the indexed fields for dynamic field work_point would be work_point__0_latlon work_point__1_latlon Not the prettiest names... but I think everything is well defined (how it would work with subFields of differing types.. have another param specifying a different suffix, how it works with dynamic fields, etc). So... the question is, do we have a concrete alternative to this that is well fleshed out? -Yonik http://www.lucidimagination.com
