Karl Wright commented on LUCENE-7936:
-------------------------------------
Hi [~ivera], I'm not happy with exposing internal representational information
everywhere.
For copying, I greatly prefer that objects know how to copy themselves.
Implementing Cloneable is one standard way to do that, rather than make lots of
public accessors. Same goes for serialization -- you can either implement
Serializable, which has a lot of problems, or you can use one of the java
serialization frameworks.
The issue is that I don't know what standards Lucene uses elsewhere. I will do
some asking around and get back to you on that.

> Hi [~david.wri...@bksv.com],
> I would like to propose to extends the GeoShape interfaces to be able to
> copy/serialized the objects. The current status and propose change is as
> following:
> GeoPoint: It can be serialized by using x, y, z
> GeoCircle: It can be serialized by using getCenter() and getRadius() and
> getPlanetModel()
> GeoCompositeShape: It can be serialized by accesing shapes using size() and
> GetShape(int index)
> GeoPath: add methods to the interface getPoints() and getCutoffAngle()
> GeoPolygon: This is the most complicated one as we have different types:
> 1.- GeoCompositePolygon is just a composite
> 2.- GeoConcavePolygon and GeoConvexPolygon: Create a new interface for
> those polygons which exposes the points, holes, internaledges and
> concavity/convexity
> 3.- GeoComplexPolygons: Do nothing, they are too complex to be serialize??
> I am intersested in accesing the discreatization of the polygons into convex
> and concave ones for other reasons as well. I think this should be expose as
> they end result can be used for other use cases.
> Cheers,
> I.
