Constructor Details

NormsProducer

protected NormsProducer()

Sole constructor. (For invocation by subclass constructors, typically implicit.)

Method Details

getNorms

public abstract NumericDocValues getNorms(FieldInfo field)
                                   throws IOException

Returns NumericDocValues for this field. The returned instance need not be thread-safe: it will only be used by a single thread.

Throws:

IOException

checkIntegrity

public abstract void checkIntegrity()
                             throws IOException

Checks consistency of this producer

Note that this may be costly in terms of I/O, e.g. may involve computing a checksum value against large data files.

Throws:

IOException

getMergeInstance

public NormsProducer getMergeInstance()

Returns an instance optimized for merging. This instance may only be used from the thread that acquires it.

The default implementation returns this
