Description

Interface Summary
Attribute | Base interface for attributes.

Class Summary
ArrayUtil | Methods for manipulating arrays.

AttributeSource | An AttributeSource contains a list of different `AttributeImpl`s, and methods to add and get them.
AttributeSource.AttributeFactory | An AttributeFactory creates instances of `AttributeImpl`s.
AttributeSource.State | This class holds the state of an AttributeSource.
Bits.MatchAllBits | Bits impl of the specified length with all bits set.
Bits.MatchNoBits | Bits impl of the specified length with no bits set.
BitUtil | A variety of high efficiency bit twiddling routines.
BitVector | Optimized implementation of a vector of bits.
ByteBlockPool | Class that Posting and PostingVector use to write byte streams into shared fixed-size byte[] arrays.

ByteBlockPool.DirectAllocator | A simple `ByteBlockPool.Allocator` that never recycles.
ByteBlockPool.DirectTrackingAllocator | A simple `ByteBlockPool.Allocator` that never recycles, but tracks how much total RAM is in use.
BytesRef | Represents byte[], as a slice (offset + length) into an existing byte[].
BytesRefHash | `BytesRefHash` is a special purpose hash-map like data-structure optimized for `BytesRef` instances.
BytesRefHash.BytesStartArray | Manages allocation of the per-term addresses.
BytesRefHash.DirectBytesStartArray | A simple `BytesRefHash.BytesStartArray` that tracks memory allocation using a private `AtomicLong` instance.
BytesRefHash.TrackingDirectBytesStartArray | A simple `BytesRefHash.BytesStartArray` that tracks all memory allocation using a shared `AtomicLong` instance.
CharacterUtils | `CharacterUtils` provides a unified interface to Character-related operations to implement backwards compatible character operations based on a `Version` instance.
CharacterUtils.CharacterBuffer | A simple IO buffer to use with `CharacterUtils.fill(CharacterBuffer, Reader)`.
CharsRef | Represents char[], as a slice (offset + length) into an existing char[].
CloseableThreadLocal<T> | Java's builtin ThreadLocal has a serious flaw: it can take an arbitrarily long amount of time to dereference the things you had stored in it, even once the ThreadLocal instance itself is no longer referenced.
CodecUtil | Utility class for reading and writing versioned headers.
CollectionUtil | Methods for manipulating (sorting) collections.
CommandLineUtil | Class containing some useful methods used by command line tools
Constants | Some useful constants.
Counter | Simple counter class
DocIdBitSet | Simple DocIdSet and DocIdSetIterator backed by a BitSet
DoubleBarrelLRUCache<K extends DoubleBarrelLRUCache.CloneableKey,V> | Simple concurrent LRU cache, using a "double barrel" approach where two ConcurrentHashMaps record entries.
DoubleBarrelLRUCache.CloneableKey | Object providing clone(); the key class must subclass this.
DummyConcurrentLock | A dummy lock as a replacement for `ReentrantLock` to disable locking
FieldCacheSanityChecker | Provides methods for sanity checking that entries in the FieldCache are not wasteful or inconsistent.
FieldCacheSanityChecker.Insanity | Simple container for a collection of related CacheEntry objects that in conjunction with each other represent some "insane" usage of the FieldCache.
FieldCacheSanityChecker.InsanityType | An Enumeration of the different types of "insane" behavior that may be detected in a FieldCache.
FixedBitSet | BitSet of fixed length (numBits), backed by accessible (`FixedBitSet.getBits()`) long[], accessed with an int index, implementing Bits and DocIdSet.
IndexableBinaryStringTools | Provides support for converting byte sequences to Strings and back again.
IntsRef | Represents int[], as a slice (offset + length) into an existing int[].
IOUtils | This class emulates the new Java 7 "Try-With-Resources" statement.
MapBackedSet<E> | A Set implementation that wraps an actual Map based implementation.
MapOfSets<K,V> | Helper class for keeping Lists of Objects associated with keys.
NamedThreadFactory | A default `ThreadFactory` implementation that accepts the name prefix of the created threads as a constructor argument.
NumericUtils | This is a helper class to generate prefix-encoded representations for numerical values and supplies converters to represent float/double values as sortable integers/longs.
NumericUtils.IntRangeBuilder | Expert: Callback for `NumericUtils.splitIntRange(org.apache.lucene.util.NumericUtils.IntRangeBuilder, int, int, int)`.
NumericUtils.LongRangeBuilder | Expert: Callback for `NumericUtils.splitLongRange(org.apache.lucene.util.NumericUtils.LongRangeBuilder, int, long, long)`.
OpenBitSet | An "open" BitSet implementation that allows direct access to the array of words storing the bits.
OpenBitSetDISI | OpenBitSet with added methods to bulk-update the bits from a `DocIdSetIterator`.
OpenBitSetIterator | An iterator to iterate over set bits in an OpenBitSet.
PagedBytes | Represents a logical byte[] as a series of pages.
PagedBytes.Reader | Provides methods to read BytesRefs from a frozen PagedBytes.
Parameter | Deprecated. Use Java 5 enum, will be removed in a later Lucene 3.x release.
PriorityQueue<T> | A PriorityQueue maintains a partial ordering of its elements such that the least element can always be found in constant time.
RamUsageEstimator | Estimates the size (memory representation) of Java objects.
ReaderUtil | Common util methods for dealing with `IndexReader`s.
ReaderUtil.Gather | Recursively visits all sub-readers of a reader.
RecyclingByteBlockAllocator | A `ByteBlockPool.Allocator` implementation that recycles unused byte blocks in a buffer and reuses them in subsequent calls to `RecyclingByteBlockAllocator.getByteBlock()`.
RollingCharBuffer | Acts like a forever growing char[] as you read characters into it from the provided reader, but internally it uses a circular buffer to only hold the characters that haven't been freed yet.
ScorerDocQueue | Deprecated.
SetOnce<T> | A convenient class which offers a semi-immutable object wrapper implementation which allows one to set the value of an object exactly once, and retrieve it many times.
SimpleStringInterner | Simple lockless and memory barrier free String intern cache that is guaranteed to return the same String instance as String.intern() does.
SmallFloat | Floating point numbers smaller than 32 bits.
SortedVIntList | Stores and iterate on sorted integers in compressed form in RAM.
SorterTemplate | This class was inspired by CGLIB, but provides a better QuickSort algorithm without additional InsertionSort at the end.
StringHelper | Methods for manipulating strings.
StringInterner | Subclasses of StringInterner are required to return the same single String object for all equal strings.
ToStringUtils | Helper methods to ease implementing `Object.toString()`.
TwoPhaseCommitTool | A utility for executing 2-phase commit on several objects.
TwoPhaseCommitTool.TwoPhaseCommitWrapper | A wrapper of a `TwoPhaseCommit`, which delegates all calls to the wrapped object, passing the specified commitData.
UnicodeUtil | Class to encode java's UTF16 char[] into UTF8 byte[] without always allocating a new byte[] as String.getBytes("UTF-8") does.
UnicodeUtil.UTF16Result | Holds decoded UTF16 code units.
UnicodeUtil.UTF8Result | Holds decoded UTF8 code units.
VirtualMethod<C> | A utility for keeping backwards compatibility on previously abstract methods (or similar replacements).
WeakIdentityMap<K,V> | Implements a combination of `WeakHashMap` and `IdentityHashMap`.

Enum Summary
RamUsageEstimator.JvmFeature | JVM diagnostic features.
Version | Use by certain classes to match version compatibility across releases of Lucene.

Exception Summary
BytesRefHash.MaxBytesLengthExceededException | Thrown if a `BytesRef` exceeds the `BytesRefHash` limit of `ByteBlockPool.BYTE_BLOCK_SIZE`-2.
SetOnce.AlreadySetException | Thrown when `SetOnce.set(Object)` is called more than once.
ThreadInterruptedException | Thrown by lucene on detecting that Thread.interrupt() had been called.
TwoPhaseCommitTool.CommitFailException | Thrown by `TwoPhaseCommitTool.execute(TwoPhaseCommit...)` when an object fails to commit().
TwoPhaseCommitTool.PrepareCommitFailException | Thrown by `TwoPhaseCommitTool.execute(TwoPhaseCommit...)` when an object fails to prepareCommit().
