25 December 2012, Apache Lucene™ 3.6.2 available The Lucene PMC is pleased to announce the release of Apache Lucene 3.6.2. Apache Lucene is a high-performance, full-featured text search engine library written entirely in Java. It is a technology suitable for nearly any application that requires full-text search, especially cross-platform. This release is a bug fix release for version 3.6.1. It contains numerous bug fixes, optimizations, and improvements, some of which are highlighted below. The release is available for immediate download at: http://lucene.apache.org/core/mirrors-core-3x-redir.html (see note below). See the CHANGES.txt file included with the release for a full list of details. Lucene 3.6.2 Release Highlights: * Fixed ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException when the in-memory terms index requires more than 2.1GB of RAM (billions of terms). * Fixed a bug in contrib/queryparser's parsing of boolean queries. * Fixed BooleanScorer2 to return the correct freq() when using the scorer visitor API. * Fixed IndexWriter RAM accounting bug that would cause it to flush too early when using many different field names. * Several other minor bugfixes: scoring bugs when using a custom coord(), a rare IndexWriter thread-safety issue, and fixes to the faceting and highlighting modules. Note: The Apache Software Foundation uses an extensive mirroring network for distributing releases. It is possible that the mirror you are using may not have replicated the release yet. If that is the case, please try another mirror. This also goes for Maven access. Happy holidays and happy searching, Lucene/Solr developers
