Robert Muir updated LUCENE-2944:
--------------------------------

    Attachment: LUCENE-2944.patch

I think producer should own the BytesRef and if consumer wants to hang onto it, 
it should make a deep copy? This is consistent w/ TermAttribute...
{quote}

Here's a new patch implementing it this way. I refactored 
TermToBytesRefAttribute into two methods, getBytesRef() and hash()... I find 
this less confusing, removes some wasted bytesrefs being needlessly created 
here and there (e.g. queryparser), and does things like allow an attribute to 
say, pre-size its reusable BytesRef to a huge size or other things custom 
attributes might want to do.  

Here is the consumer code sample I added from the javadoc:
{code}
/* 
 * Consumers of this attribute call getBytesRef() up-front, and then
 * invoke hash() for each term. Example:
 */
final TermToBytesRefAttribute termAtt = 
tokenStream.getAttribute(TermToBytesRefAttribute.class);
final BytesRef bytes = termAtt.getBytesRef();

while (termAtt.incrementToken() {

  /* 
   * you must call termAtt.hash() even if you don't need this hashCode.
   * this encodes the term value (internally it might be a char[], etc) into 
the bytes.
   */
  int hashCode = termAtt.hash();

  if (isInteresting(bytes)) {
     
    /* 
     * because the bytes are reused by the attribute (like CharTermAttribute's 
char[] buffer),
     * you should make a copy if you need persistent access to the bytes, 
otherwise they will
     * be rewritten across calls to incrementToken()
     */
    doSomethingWith(new BytesRef(bytes));
  }
}
{code}

> Some code uses BytesRef as if it were a "String", in this case consumers of 
> TermToBytesRefAttribute.
> The thing is, while our general implementation works on char[] and then 
> populates the consumers BytesRef,
> not all TermToBytesRefAttribute implementations do this, specifically ICU 
> collation, it reuses the bytes and simply sets the pointers:
> {noformat}
>   @Override
>   public int toBytesRef(BytesRef target) {
>     collator.getRawCollationKey(toString(), key);
>     target.bytes = key.bytes;
>     target.offset = 0;
>     target.length = key.size;
>     return target.hashCode();
>   }
> {noformat}
> Most of the blame falls on me as I added this to the queryparser in 
> LUCENE-2514.
> Attached is a patch so that these consumers re-use a 'spare' and copy the 
> bytes when they are going to make a long lasting object such as a Term.
