Mark Miller commented on SOLR-2118:
-----------------------------------

Setting the divisor that way shouldn't likely work on trunk anymore, since 
Lucene dropped it. That is just a generic 'call this bean method' system.

I think the story is that the interval came first, but we don't specify 
indexwriter anywhere in solrconfig, so it made sense to go where it is perhaps 
- and then later this generic system to call setters was impl'd, and it just 
happens that for a little while you could use it to set the termIndexInterval.

I'm all for consistency if it possible though. So far, Solr has really avoided 
exposing an IndexWriter - it's not even part of the UpdateHandler interface. We 
have hacked around that here and there by exposing in DirectUpdateHandler2 and 
counting on that impl for certain functionality.

> IndexReaderFactory.setTermIndexInterval is misleading and confusing

> To change the terms index divisor: you currently do this:
> {noformat}
>   <indexReaderFactory name="IndexReaderFactory" 
> class="org.apache.solr.core.StandardIndexReaderFactory">
>     <int name="setTermIndexInterval">12</int>
>   </indexReaderFactory >
> {noformat}
> But to change the terms index interval, you do this:
> {noformat}
> <indexDefaults>
> ...
> <termIndexInterval>256</termIndexInterval>
> ...
> </indexDefaults>
> {noformat}
> I feel the IR parameter should be *setTermIndexDivisor* or similar instead:
> the name is very misleading and someone could easily put a terrible value 
> in the wrong place by confusing the two.
