Fieldable and Document class.

	HI Folks,

        How to address the a change in the name of the file (or) the
    location of a file that was indexed.?. Is re-indexing this file the
    only way out ?.
    Since most of our files, we are planning on indexing are pretty dynamic.

    Thank you
    _Durga

There is no "update in place" functionality in Lucene. You can use
IndexModifier
which (under the covers) does a delete/add.

How dynamic is "pretty dynamic"? updating one doc/hour? Updating
1,000 docs a second?

Best
Erick
