Steven Rowe commented on LUCENE-3690:
-------------------------------------
bq. I had a heck of a time handling all the weird stuff that could appear
inside script tags, for example, and I don't think I see much of a test for
that (again... my fault.)
I added tests with the following snippets:
{noformat}
one<script><!-- <!--#config comment="<!-- \"comment\"-->"--> --></script>two
=> 'one
two'
{noformat}
{noformat}
one<script attr= bare><!-- action('<!-- comment -->', "\"-->\"");
--></script>two
=> 'one
two'
{noformat}
{noformat}
hello<script><!-- f('<!--internal--></script>'); --></script>
=> 'hello
'
{noformat}
bq. One can be sure that the current implementation doesn't always do the right
thing, but unfortunately "right" isn't well defined here considering the domain.
I agree - the "right" thing IMHO is: get as much content from as varied a range
of sources as possible, and never ever allow the input to bork processing.
bq. The cost to keeping around the current version for a little while seems
minimal.
My proposal would do this, though under a different name, and requiring a
luceneMatchVersion of 3.5 or earlier for the factory to use it. Do you object
to this?
I have two issues with not switching over now:
# It's a chicken and egg problem: how will people know if there is a problem
with the new implementation if they don't use it?
# The current version has several long standing bugs that nobody has fixed. I
personally wouldn't attempt it with the current implementation: it's difficult
to understand. This is one of my main motivations for making this new version:
when people find issues, fixing them should be much easier with the new
implementation.
