Before implementing this search engine,I have designed to build the
index in such a way that every XML tag is converted using binary
value,in order to reduce the size index and perhaps for faster
searching.To illustrate:
article will be converted to 0
article/body will be converted to 0.0
article/body/section will be converted to 0.0.0
article/body/p will be converted to 0.0.1
Now,because of using lucene for the implementation,i wonder wheter
such conversion will still be useful for efficiency..I wonder wheter
inside the lucene index itself, such kind of conversion or perhaps even
further optimization is already done in order to reduce the size index
or for faster searching.
Indeed you don't need to do this because each field stores its name as
an integer lookup already. See SegmentTermEnum / FieldInfos.
