----------------------------------
Cool... i don't suppose you have time to work on a patch?
(what's the emoticon for fingers crossed?)
> getDocValues should provide a MultiReader DocValues abstraction

> Key: LUCENE-1789
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1789
> Project: Lucene - Java
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Hoss Man
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 2.9
>
>
> When scoring a ValueSourceQuery, the scoring code calls ValueSource.getValues(reader)
on *each* leaf level subreader -- so DocValue instances are backed by the individual FieldCache
entries of the subreaders -- but if Client code were to inadvertently called getValues()
on a MultiReader (or DirectoryReader) they would wind up using the "outer" FieldCache.
> Since getValues(IndexReader) returns DocValues, we have an advantage here that we don't
have with FieldCache API (which is required to provide direct array access). getValues(IndexReader)
could be implimented so that *IF* some a caller inadvertently passes in a reader with non-null
subReaders, getValues could generate a DocValues instance for each of the subReaders, and
then wrap them in a composite "MultiDocValues".
