: Indexed is orthogonal to stored. Stored fields aren't in necessarily the : index (that is, serachable fields), but are associated with the document. : Stored fields are accessible through the document interface instead, see the : the methods on Fieldable.
all true, but slightly orthoginal i believe to the heart of hte issue ... things like "INDEXED" and "TERMVECTOR" are expressable both in terms of IndexReader.FieldOption instances and in terms of Field.Index/Field.TermVector instances ... but there is no FieldOption equivilent to the Field.Store instances -- the reason comes up because of the intended usage. FieldOptions instances come into play when calling IndexReader.getFieldNames, the Field.Stoe/Field.Index/Field.TermVector options come into play when adding a document if i recall correctly, termvector-ness and index-ness affect the entire segment, while stored-ness only affects the individual documents ... so there is a need to know what field names have termvectors across an entire indexreader -- but it doesn't really matter what fields are stored. -Hoss --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
