------------------------------------------

             Summary: Version should not be encoded as a String in the index
                 Key: LUCENE-5992
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-5992
             Project: Lucene - Core
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Michael McCandless
            Assignee: Michael McCandless
             Fix For: 5.0, Trunk


The version is really "just" 3 (maybe 4) ints under-the-hood, but today we 
write it as a String which then requires spooky string tokenization/parsing 
when we open the index.  I think it should be encoded directly as ints.

In LUCENE-5952 I had tried to make this change, but it was controversial, and 
got booted.

Then in LUCENE-5969, I tried again, but that issue has morphed (nicely!) into 
fixing all sorts of things *except* these three ints.

Maybe 3rd time's a charm ;)
