org.apache.lucene.codecs.lucene60.Lucene60PointsFormat

public final class Lucene60PointsFormat
extends PointsFormat

Lucene 6.0 point format, which encodes dimensional values in a block KD-tree structure for fast shape intersection filtering. See this paper for details.

This data structure is written as a series of blocks on disk, with an in-memory perfectly balanced binary tree of split values referencing those blocks at the leaves.

The .dim file has both blocks and the index split values, for each field. The file starts with CodecUtil.writeIndexHeader(org.apache.lucene.store.DataOutput, java.lang.String, int, byte[], java.lang.String).

The blocks are written like this:

• count (vInt)
• delta-docID (vInt) ^count (delta coded docIDs, in sorted order)
• packedValue^count (the byte[] value of each dimension packed into a single byte[])

After all blocks for a field are written, then the index is written:

• numDims (vInt)
• maxPointsInLeafNode (vInt)
• bytesPerDim (vInt)
• count (vInt)
• byte[bytesPerDim]^count (packed byte[] all split values)
• delta-blockFP (vLong)^count (delta-coded file pointers to the on-disk leaf blocks))

After all fields blocks + index data are written, CodecUtil.writeFooter(org.apache.lucene.store.IndexOutput) writes the checksum.

The .dii file records the file pointer in the .dim file where each field's index data was written. It starts with CodecUtil.writeIndexHeader(org.apache.lucene.store.DataOutput, java.lang.String, int, byte[], java.lang.String), then has:

• fieldCount (vInt)
• (fieldNumber (vInt), fieldFilePointer (vLong))^fieldCount

After all fields blocks + index data are written, CodecUtil.writeFooter(org.apache.lucene.store.IndexOutput) writes the checksum.

WARNING: This API is experimental and might change in incompatible ways in the next release.

fieldsWriter

public PointsWriter fieldsWriter(SegmentWriteState state)
                          throws IOException

Description copied from class: PointsFormat

Writes a new segment

Specified by:

fieldsWriter in class PointsFormat

Throws:

IOException

fieldsReader

public PointsReader fieldsReader(SegmentReadState state)
                          throws IOException

Description copied from class: PointsFormat

Reads a segment. NOTE: by the time this call returns, it must hold open any files it will need to use; else, those files may be deleted. Additionally, required files may be deleted during the execution of this call before there is a chance to open them. Under these circumstances an IOException should be thrown by the implementation. IOExceptions are expected and will automatically cause a retry of the segment opening logic with the newly revised segments.

Specified by:

fieldsReader in class PointsFormat

Throws:

IOException
