Simon Willnauer commented on LUCENE-2621:
-----------------------------------------
Brief Summary for GSoC Students:
This issue is about extend Codec to handle also stored fields and term vectors
This is a very interesting and at the same time very much needed
feature which involves API Design, Refactoring and in depth
understanding of how IndexWriter and its internals work. The API which
needs to be refactored (Codec API) was made to consume PostingLists
once an in memory index segment is flushed to disc. Yet, to expose
Stored Fields to this API we need to prepare it to consume data for
every document while we build the in memory segment. So there is a
little paradigm missmatch here which needs to be addressed.
