So, if anything at all, I would rather opt for making these constants private :-).
I agree. In general, fields should either be final, or private with accessor methods. So, we could change this to:
private static int defaultMergeFactor = Integer.parseInt(System.getProperty("org.apache.lucene.mergeFactor", "10"));
public static int getDefaultMergeFactor() { return mergeFactor; }
public static void setDefaultMergeFactor(int mergeFactor) { defaultMergeFactor = mergeFactor; }
In my original patch I deleted 5 "final" keywords for a reduction in code of 25 bytes.. If I were to submit the patch again I'd have to add 2 methods and 35 additional lines of code.
Seems to me that the Java coding conventions in this situation should be ignored.
