2010-08-01 Thread Karthik K

Not that I know of. The DataImportHandler has the ability to create multiple documents from one input stream. It is possible to create a DIH file that reads large log files and splits each one into N documents, with the file name as a common field. The DIH wiki page tells you in general how to mak

Hi, This is something that I am working on too.I have been trying to combine results from 3 different tables and trying to avoid the usual SQL union clauses. One thing I have tried to do is watch out for common fields like, for example, first name and last name that could be present in all tables
