-----------------------------------
Summary: add no-Version parameter to Analyzers/QueryParser
Key: LUCENE-5859
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-5859
Project: Lucene - Core
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Robert Muir
This has always been a mess: analyzers are easy enough to make on your own, we
don't need to "take responsibility" for the users analysis chain for 2 major
releases.
The code maintenance is horrible here.
This creates a huge usability issue too, and as seen from numerous mailing list
issues, users don't even understand how this versioning works anyway.
I'm sure someone will whine if i try to remove these constants, but we can at
least make no-arg ctors forwarding to VERSION_CURRENT so that people who don't
care about back compat (e.g. just prototyping) don't have to deal with the
horribly complex versioning system.
If you want to make the argument that doing this is "trappy" (i heard this
before), i think thats bogus, and ill counter by trying to remove them. Either
way, I'm personally not going to add any of this kind of back compat logic
myself ever again.
