Fair enough. I'd just like to get some opinions on using EnumSet instead of
the bit field in the ctor. So instead of having

new FieldType(INDEXED | STORED)

we wrap the options in an EnumSet,

new FieldType(EnumSet.of(INDEXED, STORED))

The obvious advantage is that we don't need to explicitly set the option
members in FieldType, so no binary logic.


Regards,


Adnan
