: After deleting documents from the index it can happen that fields become : unused (i.e. no document has this field anymore). And : IndexReader.getFieldNames() still returns these unused fields, even : after optimizing the index. Is there any chance to get rid of these : unused fields?
that's odd ... i'm 99% sure that should work (optimizng should perge unused fields). what version of Lucene are you using? (if you're on the trunk it might be a bug introduced recently with some of the indexing changes) Can you post some test code demonstrating the problem? -Hoss --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: java-user-unsubscr...@lucene.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: java-user-h...@lucene.apache.org
