Class SharedFieldCache

java.lang.Object

org.apache.jackrabbit.core.query.lucene.SharedFieldCache

public class SharedFieldCache
extends Object

Implements a variant of the lucene class org.apache.lucene.search.FieldCacheImpl. The lucene FieldCache class has some sort of support for custom comparators but it only works on the basis of a field name. There is no further control over the terms to iterate, that's why we use our own implementation.
