[jira] Commented: (LUCENE-2887) Remove/deprecate IndexReader.undeleteAll

["Andrzej Bialecki (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-2887?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12985967#action_12985967 ] 

Andrzej Bialecki  commented on LUCENE-2887:
-------------------------------------------

The MultiPassIndexSplitter won't work without this API. It can be modified to use a subclass of IndexReader & term / postings enumerators to restore the current behavior, or it can be rewritten entirely as a (fabled) SinglePassIndexSplitter. ;)

> This API is rather dangerous in that it's "best effort" since it can only un-delete docs that have not yet been merged away, or, dropped (as of LUCENE-2010).
> Given that it exposes impl details of how Lucene prunes deleted docs, I think we should remove this API.
> Are there legitimate use cases....?
