Robert Muir updated LUCENE-2754:
--------------------------------

    Attachment: LUCENE-2754.patch

Attached is an improved patch, still not perfect but better.

I added Uwe's suggestion of delegating all methods in the wrapper, and also
setting the rewrite method in the ctor and documenting that it does this.

I added a simple test case in search.spans that wraps some wildcard and fuzzy 
queries,
and added examples and javadocs.

I also deprecated the SpanRegexQuery, converted the tests for the contrib 
SpanRegexQuery to use the wrapper directly, and deprecated the old tests, but 
they still work too.

I would prefer to avoid the heavy refactoring of MultiTermQuery rewrites 
(easier on another issue?) just because it would make backporting to 3.x a 
little more tricky.

Anyway, I think this is pretty close, maybe just needs another police 
investigation
before committing.

> I set fix version: 4.0, but possibly we could do this for 3.x too
> Currently, we have a special SpanRegexQuery in contrib, and issues like 
> LUCENE-522 open for SpanFuzzyQuery.
> The SpanRegexQuery in contrib is a little messy additionally.
> For any arbitrary MultiTermQueries to work as a SpanQuery, there are only 3 
> requirements:
> # The un-rewritten query must extend SpanQuery so it can be included in Span 
> clauses
> # The rewritten query should be SpanOrQuery instead of BooleanQuery
> # The rewritten term clauses should be SpanTermQueries.
> Instead of having logic like this for each query, i suggest adding two 
> rewrite methods:
> * ScoringSpanBoolean rewrite
> * TopTermsSpanBoolean rewrite
> as a start i wrote these up, and added a SpanMultiTermQueryWrapper that can 
> be used to wrap any multitermquery this way.
> there are a few kinks, but I think the MTQ policeman can probably help get 
> through them.
