fieldtype?
Thank you Jack,
I just realized that perhaps ignored was a bad example. But if I understood
correctly, then I can specify multiValued on the type and not do so on the
field itself and I still get multiValued entries.
That's good to know.
Regards,
Alex.

Specifying an attribute on the field type makes it the default for any
field of that type.
Setting multiValued=true on "ignored" simply allows it to be used for any
field, whether it is single or multi-valued, and any source data, whether
it has one or multiple values for that ignored field. Otherwise, you would
get an error if multiple values were given for an ignored field which had
no multiValued attribute, while the stated goal is to simply ignore the
field and its incoming values.

Hello,
I was looking at the 'ignored' field in the example's schema.xml and
suddenly noticed that its field type has multiValued=true in the
definition. Wiki confirms that it is possible, but does not explains.
What's the difference between defining it on the type and on the field
itself? Because example has it defined on both.
I am confused suddenly, because we now have permutation of 9 different
values (true/false/missing ^ 2) and I am not sure what the exact semantics
is.
I am mostly interested in fieldType/@multiValued=true impact, but curious
about the other permutations.
Thanks,
Alex.
