documentation in fileformats.html
hi Christoph,
first of all, many thanks for reviewing and at least adding the binary
and compression patch to lucene. What we still have to do, before
finalizing the implementation, is to update the documentation describing
the field data in fileformats.html. The sentence
"Currently only the low-order bit is used of Bits is used. It is one for
tokenized fields, and zero for non-tokenized fields."
is outdated now and should be updated. Any idea how to proceed ?
best regards
Bernhard

Actually it's ZLIB, isn't it?

I committed these changes.

We should note that when compression is enabled, gzip is used.
Also, byte[] is not a type defined in the file. In the formalism used
in fileformats.html, this should be:
Value -> String | BinaryValue (depending on Bits)
BinaryValue -> ValueSize, <Byte>^ValueSize
ValueSize -> VInt

The web page is updated now, could you please re-check if it's correct? I
added that information so that the Lucene <= 1.4 format is still there.

replace:
Bits --> Byte
Value --> String
Currently only the low-order bit is used of Bits is used. It is one for
tokenized fields, and zero for non-tokenized fields.
with:
Bits --> Byte
- low order bit is one for tokenized fields.
- second bit is one for fields containing binary data.
- third bit is one for fields with compression option enabled.
Value --> String (default) or byte[] when the field value is a binary field

Bernhard

Is that the only sentence? If so, you could send the new sentence/paragraph
to this list and someone will add it to the documentation in CVS.
