Can we update a field on the current index
Hi,
I want to modify a field on the current index. Can it be done?
For what I have heard that we cannot update the index . It has to be
reindexed by deleting and then indexing again.
Thanks,
Aditi

You're welcome!
And, feel free to go vote for that issue ... Jira's voting system lets
us gauge importance of features like this over time :)

Yes you must delete the entire document and then re-index a new one,
to update a single Field.
There is some work underway, or at least a Jira issue opened, towards
improving this situation, here:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1231
But it will be some time before that's available.
