[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Commented: (HSEARCH-93) index map<String, Object>

index map<String, Object> ------------------------- Key: HSEARCH-93 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HSEARCH-93 Project: Hibernate Search Issue Type: New Feature Components: engine Affects Versions: 3.0.0.beta3 Reporter: koen handekyn Original Estimate: 1 day Remaining Estimate: 1 day example class class MyDocument { @DocumentId long id; @Fields java.util.map<String, String> metaData; } the @Fields annotation stores each key value pair as a lucene key value. this allows efficient searching on loosely typed object meta data (which is typically hard to map onto a relational database model but perfect for a lucene index) note : this could probably be realized with a FieldBridge but a specifc annotaion could be handy note : ideally a MultiMap is also supported as a property can have multiple occurances in a lucene document
