## Class STUniformSplitTermsWriter

- java.lang.Object
- - org.apache.lucene.codecs.FieldsConsumer

- All Implemented Interfaces:
    `Closeable`, `AutoCloseable`

      public class STUniformSplitTermsWriter
      extends UniformSplitTermsWriter

  Extends `UniformSplitTermsWriter` by sharing all the fields terms in the same dictionary and by writing all the fields of a term in the same block line.

  The `block file` contains all the term blocks for all fields. Each block line, for a single term, may have multiple fields `TermState`. The block file also contains the fields metadata at the end of the file.

  The `dictionary file` contains a single trie (`FST` bytes) for all fields.

  This structure is adapted when there are lots of fields. In this case the shared-terms dictionary trie is much smaller.

  This `FieldsConsumer` requires a custom `merge(MergeState, NormsProducer)` method for efficiency. The regular merge would scan all the fields sequentially, which internally would scan the whole shared-terms dictionary as many times as there are fields. Whereas the custom merge directly scans the internal shared-terms dictionary of all segments to merge, thus scanning once whatever the number of fields is.

  WARNING: This API is experimental and might change in incompatible ways in the next release.
