Hi all, Is there any guaranty that the maxDoc returned by a reader will be about the total number of indexed documents?
The motivation of this question is that I want to associate some info to each document in the index, and in order to access this additional data in O(1) I would like to do this through an array indexing. But the array size shouldn't be a lot greater than the total number of documents. I see that something similar is done in the example of section 6.1 of Lucene in Action, but for sorting purposes, which is not my case. Related to this: how can update my array of extra data when documents are added/removed to/from the index? Is there any feedback mechanism by means of callbacks or event handlers? Thank you in advance. Regards, Carlos
