Class PostingsReaderBase

java.lang.Object

org.apache.lucene.codecs.PostingsReaderBase

All Implemented Interfaces:

Closeable

Direct Known Subclasses:

Lucene40PostingsReader

public abstract class PostingsReaderBase
extends Object
implements Closeable

The core terms dictionaries (BlockTermsReader, BlockTreeTermsReader) interact with a single instance of this class to manage creation of DocsEnum and DocsAndPositionsEnum instances. It provides an IndexInput (termsIn) where this class may read any previously stored data that it had written in its corresponding PostingsWriterBase at indexing time.

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

Method Summary

Methods

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
abstract void	close()
abstract DocsEnum	docs(FieldInfo fieldInfo, BlockTermState state, Bits skipDocs, DocsEnum reuse, int flags) Must fully consume state, since after this call that TermState may be reused.
abstract DocsAndPositionsEnum	docsAndPositions(FieldInfo fieldInfo, BlockTermState state, Bits skipDocs, DocsAndPositionsEnum reuse, int flags) Must fully consume state, since after this call that TermState may be reused.
abstract void	init(IndexInput termsIn) Performs any initialization, such as reading and verifying the header from the provided terms dictionary IndexInput.
abstract BlockTermState	newTermState() Return a newly created empty TermState
abstract void	nextTerm(FieldInfo fieldInfo, BlockTermState state) Actually decode metadata for next term
abstract void	readTermsBlock(IndexInput termsIn, FieldInfo fieldInfo, BlockTermState termState) Reads data for all terms in the next block; this method should merely load the byte[] blob but not decode, which is done in nextTerm(org.apache.lucene.index.FieldInfo, org.apache.lucene.codecs.BlockTermState).

Specified by:

close in interface Closeable

Throws:

IOException

readTermsBlock

public abstract void readTermsBlock(IndexInput termsIn,
                  FieldInfo fieldInfo,
