-------------------------------------------
Summary: Add method toInternalByteRef to FieldType and possibly
deprecate toInternal()
Key: SOLR-9988
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-9988
Project: Solr
Issue Type: Improvement
Security Level: Public (Default Security Level. Issues are Public)
Reporter: Tomás Fernández Löbbe
Priority: Minor
Point FieldTypes can't be Strings in it's "internal representation", so calling
{{ft.toInternal(...)}} is not supported. For those fields we use
{{toInternalByteRef(...)}} that does the same thing but returns a {{BytesRef}}
instance instead of a String. In many cases, the consumer of
{{toInternal(...)}} actually needs (or can optionally use) a {{BytesRef}} and
we end up creating one from the String. It would be better to have
{{toInternal()}} return a {{BytesRef}} instance, it can be easily converted to
a String if needed
