[jira] [Commented] (LUCENE-5178) doc values should expose missing
values (or allow configurable defaults)
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-5178?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13742182#comment-13742182 ]
Yonik Seeley commented on LUCENE-5178:
--------------------------------------
Yes, I think tracking/exposing missing values is the best option, esp for numerics where you can use the full range and still tell of there was a value or not.

> DocValues should somehow allow a configurable default per-field.
> Possible implementations include setting it on the field in the document or registration of an IndexWriter callback.
> If we don't make the default configurable, then another option is to have DocValues fields keep track of whether a value was indexed for that document or not.
