Class PerFieldPostingsFormat

Enables per field postings support.

Note, when extending this class, the name (Name) is written into the index. In order for the field to be read, the name must resolve to your implementation via ForName(String). This method uses GetPostingsFormat(String) to resolve format names. See DefaultPostingsFormatFactory for information about how to implement your own PostingsFormat.

Files written by each posting format have an additional suffix containing the format name. For example, in a per-field configuration instead of _1.prx filenames would look like _1_Lucene40_0.prx.
