Dawid Weiss commented on LUCENE-3820:
-------------------------------------
Thanks for looking at this, Robert. I'll go back to this later today, but I can
tell you right now that from my paper considerations negative indexes make
logical sense in case of "prepended" characters. So:
PATTERN: A
INPUT: ABCDEF
REPLACEMENT: XYZ
OUTPUT:XYZBCDEF
then (in my patch) X and Y would have negative offsets. It's a matter of
agreement I guess. Negative indexes are consistent with something like this:
PATTERN: ^
INPUT: ABC
REPLACEMENT: XYZ
OUTPUT:XYZABC
then all three characters (XYZ) have a negative index to indicate they're
prepended. Thoughts?

> I need to use PatternReplaceCharFilter's index corrections directly and it
> fails for me -- the trailing index is not mapped correctly for a pattern
> "\\.[\\s]*" and replacement ".", input "A. .B.".
> I tried to understand the logic in getReplaceBlock but I eventually failed
> and simply rewrote it from scratch. After my changes a few tests don't pass
> but I don't know if it's the tests that are screwed up or my logic. In
> essence, the difference between the previous implementation and my
> implementation is how indexes are mapped for shorter replacements. I shift
> indexes of shorter regions to the "right" of the original index pool and the
> previous patch seems to squeeze them to the left (don't know why though).
> If anybody remembers how it's supposed to work, feel free to correct me?
