Hello all,
Is it possible to use parallel indexing and still ensure unique documents in
the merged index? Using the canned example, I''m ending up with
non-unique
entries. It''s just adding them all together even though I''ve
defined unique
a :key.
How can I tell the IndexWriter to keep my uniqueness constraints?
For example, imagine that I have two indexes of a phone book:
"index_one" contains a unique set of names A-through-P (let''s
say the key is
their phone number).
"index_two" contains a unique set of names K-through-Z.
When I merge them, I would hope to get a unique index of A-through-Z, but
I''m getting double entries where they overlap, K-through-P.
Here''s some code to demonstrate. My :id field is a long-ish unique
alphanumeric string. In the example below, "one" and "two"
are actually
identical copies, each containing about 60,000 docs. I was hoping to get a
combined index containing the same 60,000 docs, but ended up with 120,000.
Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
