Erratum: "deletion changes doc-id's by purging deleted documents" --> "*merging* changes
doc-id's by purging deleted documents"
> ParallelWriter companion to ParallelReader
> ------------------------------------------
>
> Key: LUCENE-600
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-600
> Project: Lucene - Java
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Index
> Affects Versions: 2.1
> Reporter: Chuck Williams
> Priority: Minor
> Attachments: ParallelWriter.patch
>
>
> A new class ParallelWriter is provided that serves as a companion to ParallelReader.
ParallelWriter meets all of the doc-id synchronization requirements of ParallelReader, subject
to:
> 1. ParallelWriter.addDocument() is synchronized, which might have an adverse effect
on performance. The writes to the sub-indexes are, however, done in parallel.
> 2. The application must ensure that the ParallelReader is never reopened inside
ParallelWriter.addDocument(), else it might find the sub-indexes out of sync.
> 3. The application must deal with recovery from ParallelWriter.addDocument() exceptions.
Recovery must restore the synchronization of doc-ids, e.g. by deleting any trailing document(s)
in one sub-index that were not successfully added to all sub-indexes, and then optimizing
all sub-indexes.
> A new interface, Writable, is provided to abstract IndexWriter and ParallelWriter. This
is in the same spirit as the existing Searchable and Fieldable classes.
> This implementation uses java 1.5. The patch applies against today's svn head. All
tests pass, including the new TestParallelWriter.
