copyField stored values question

[Michael Henson <Mi...@napster.com>]

Hello,

 

I am using copyField to send the raw name of an entity into different
fields for indexing:

 

# schema.xml snippet

<field name="raw_name" type="string" indexed="false" stored="true" />

<field name="indexed_name" type="some_custom_type" indexed="true"
stored="true" />

<field name="other_indexed_name" type="some_other_type" indexed="true"
stored="true" />

 

<copyField source="raw_name" dest="indexed_name" />

<copyField source="raw_name" dest="other_indexed_name" />

 

 

I set the indexed fields to be stored so that I could see what exactly
my custom types' filters produce. In the Analyzer utility in the Admin
webapp seems to apply the filters properly. However, query results
against this index return the original "raw_name" value for both of the
indexed fields.

 

Is it the expected behavior that copyField targets with stored="true"
always store the source value they were given?

 

If so, is there any way to store the post-filtered target value instead?

 

Thanks,

Michael Henson

Stored fields are never modified.  The output from analyzers is used
for indexing purposes only.
