FieldCache

Indicator for StringIndex values in the cache.

Expert: The cache used internally by sorting and range query classes.

The default parser for byte values, which are encoded by toString(byte)

The default parser for double values, which are encoded by toString(double)

The default parser for float values, which are encoded by toString(float)

The default parser for int values, which are encoded by toString(int)

The default parser for long values, which are encoded by toString(long)

The default parser for short values, which are encoded by toString(short)

A parser instance for double values encoded with NumericUtils, e.g. when indexed via NumericField/NumericTokenStream.

A parser instance for float values encoded with NumericUtils, e.g. when indexed via NumericField/NumericTokenStream.

A parser instance for int values encoded by intToPrefixCoded(int), e.g. when indexed via NumericField/NumericTokenStream.

A parser instance for long values encoded by longToPrefixCoded(long), e.g. when indexed via NumericField/NumericTokenStream.

Checks the internal cache for an appropriate entry, and if none is found, reads the terms in field as bytes and returns an array of size reader.maxDoc() of the value each document has in the given field.

Checks the internal cache for an appropriate entry, and if none is found, reads the terms in field as a single byte and returns an array of size reader.maxDoc() of the value each document has in the given field.

EXPERT: Generates an array of CacheEntry objects representing all items currently in the FieldCache.

NOTE: These CacheEntry objects maintain a strong reference to the Cached Values. Maintaining references to a CacheEntry the IndexReader associated with it has garbage collected will prevent the Value itself from being garbage collected when the Cache drops the WeakRefrence.

EXPERIMENTAL API: This API is considered extremely advanced and experimental. It may be removed or altered w/o warning in future releases of Lucene.

Checks the internal cache for an appropriate entry, and if none is found reads the term values in field and returns an array of them in natural order, along with an array telling which element in the term array each document uses.

Checks the internal cache for an appropriate entry, and if none is found, reads the term values in field and returns an array of size reader.maxDoc() containing the value each document has in the given field.

Expert: drops all cache entries associated with this reader. NOTE: this reader must precisely match the reader that the cache entry is keyed on. If you pass a top-level reader, it usually will have no effect as Lucene now caches at the segment reader level.

EXPERT: Instructs the FieldCache to forcibly expunge all entries from the underlying caches. This is intended only to be used for test methods as a way to ensure a known base state of the Cache (with out needing to rely on GC to free WeakReferences). It should not be relied on for "Cache maintenance" in general application code.

EXPERIMENTAL API: This API is considered extremely advanced and experimental. It may be removed or altered w/o warning in future releases of Lucene.

If non-null, FieldCacheImpl will warn whenever entries are created that are not sane according to FieldCacheSanityChecker.
