FAQ
I am about to evaluate Lucene for replacing
current IR system of Belgian Poison Center.

We are used to manage query refinements by
combining different searches with boolean
operators: we thus have to store the results
(or otherwise to remake them). Our current
software does this by paging compressed bit
sets on disk. I did not saw (up to now)
an object like Compressed BitSets in Lucene.

Browsing the web, I found a very interesting
class, near of what we currently use:
http://www.iis.uni-stuttgart.de/intset/

What Lucene's developpers think
about this issue ?

Thank you very much for your advice !

    Just a short one, it rocks in some cases (when actual
    BitSet/IntSet is compressable, long runs of set or
    clear bits...). Very good general BitSet
    representation

    I have tried it and found no bugs so far (+- 2 months
    of using it)

    Unfortunately, there is an issue with Licence (not ASF
    compatible :(

    cheers

    PS:
    To use something like that with Lucene you will hit
    the problem with Filter interface that suports only
    BitSet. It means you will have to wait a bit until
    more flexible Filter interface gets accepted by the
    comunity. Apart from that, I would not evaluate too
    much, just take Lucene, it is briliant ;)

    PS1: If you are interested in compressed bit sets, try
    to search for "utilities for compact sparse filters
    lucene"
