-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: LUCENE-3665
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-3665
             Project: Lucene - Java
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: modules/highlighter
    Affects Versions: 3.5
            Reporter: Simon Willnauer
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 3.6, 4.0


Currently if I have a custom query which subclasses query directly I can't use 
the QueryScorer for highlighting since it does explicit instanceof checks. In 
some cases its is possible to rewrite the query before passing it to the 
highlighter to obtain a primitive query. However I had the usecase where this 
was not possible ie. the original index was not available on the machine which 
highlights the results. To still use the highlighter I had to copy a bunch of 
code due to visibility issues in those classes. I think we can make this 
extensible with minor effort to allow this usecase without massive code 
duplication.
