             Summary: Can PrefixQuery subclass AutomatonQuery?
                 Key: LUCENE-6367
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-6367
             Project: Lucene - Core
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Michael McCandless
            Assignee: Michael McCandless
             Fix For: Trunk, 5.1


Spinoff/blocker for LUCENE-5879.

It seems like PrefixQuery should "simply" be an AutomatonQuery rather than 
specializing its own TermsEnum ... with maybe some performance improvements to 
ByteRunAutomaton.run to short-circuit once it's in a "sink state", 
AutomatonTermsEnum could be just as fast as PrefixTermsEnum.

If we can do this it will make LUCENE-5879 simpler.
