public class BlockTreeTermsReader
extends FieldsProducer

A block-based terms index and dictionary that assigns terms to variable length blocks according to how they share prefixes. The terms index is a prefix trie whose leaves are term blocks. The advantage of this approach is that seekExact is often able to determine a term cannot exist without doing any IO, and intersection with Automata is very fast. Note that this terms dictionary has it's own fixed terms index (ie, it does not support a pluggable terms index implementation).

NOTE: this terms dictionary does not support index divisor when opening an IndexReader. Instead, you can change the min/maxItemsPerBlock during indexing.

The data structure used by this implementation is very similar to a burst trie (http://citeseer.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/summary?doi=10.1.1.18.3499), but with added logic to break up too-large blocks of all terms sharing a given prefix into smaller ones.

Use CheckIndex with the -verbose option to see summary statistics on the blocks in the dictionary. See BlockTreeTermsWriter.

iterator

public Iterator<String> iterator()

Description copied from class: Fields

Returns an iterator that will step through all fields names. This will not return null.

Specified by:

iterator in interface Iterable<String>

Specified by:
