----------------------------------

             Summary: Add getOrd to BytesRefHash
                 Key: LUCENE-4838
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-4838
             Project: Lucene - Core
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: core/other
            Reporter: Shai Erera
            Assignee: Shai Erera
            Priority: Minor


There is no API today to query BytesRefHash for the existence of a certain BytesRef. Rather, you should use .add(), which looks up the given bytes, and hashes them if they are not found, or returns their ord if they are found.

I would like to add a simple getOrd API which will return the ord of a given BytesRef, or -1 if not found. I would like to use that API in the facet module, and I need to be able to query the hash without necessarily adding elements to it.

I have a simple patch, will post shortly.
