Hi,

Projection
The ability to project some fields the index only avoiding the
database roundtrip.
fullTextQuery.setProjection("id", "summary", "author.name").list();
will return a List<Object[]> like the regular HQL projection
the fieldbridge has to be two way (all built-in are) and the
projected fields have to be Store.YES or Store.COMPRESS

Looks good to me. It is a shame so that you have to specify the index field names explicitly as strings. I wonder if there could be another way? On the one hand you are able to index a field just via annoation, not caring what the lucene field name will be, on the other hand you have to use the field names in the projection. Unfortunately, I haven't used projections before so I have to understand the code first. My main question right now - what type of objects are returned from the query? Partly populated objects of the
managed classes or some other sort of objects?
Nevertheless, I will try it right away. I was basically looking for a solution which would not go all the way to the
database.

A few questions:
Currently fields Store.NO or where the fieldbridge is one way are
ignored and return null.
The idea behind that is to be able to project across multiple
entities / index. Not sure if it's a useful feature.
I guess I would expect an error if I include a field to be projected, but it is not stored in the index.


Expose resultSize()
ie the total number of result regardless of the pagination
fullTextQuery.setMaxResult(20)resultSize() == 3000
A better name is more than welcome.
I would also opt for getResultSize()


I am fairly happy with the feature set for beta2, I will probably
close a couple of issues and release beta2 (round end of next week,
no guaranty though).
That would be great. I will be testing the new features within the application we are currently developing.

Cheers,
Hardy
