Joel, thanks, but which of them? I've counted at least 4, if not more, different ways of how to get DocValues. Are there many functionally equal approaches just because devs can't agree on using one api? Or is there a deeper reason?
Btw, the FieldCache is still there - both in lucene (to be deprecated) and in solr; but became package accessible only This is what removed the FieldCache: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-5666 This is what followed: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-8096 And there is still code which un-inverts data from an index if no doc-values are available. --roman On Tue, Aug 16, 2016 at 9:54 PM, Joel Bernstein <joels...@gmail.com> wrote: > You'll want to use org.apache.lucene.index.DocValues.
