----------------------------------------------------------------
Hmmm, this is an invalid field definition, you have to have at least one
tokenizer or your field doesn't do anything.
I can mask the error with a couple of trivial changes (see patch attached) but
I don't think that's really a good fix. It seems we should (in order of my
preference, either of my two <1>'s work for me)
1> fail hard at startup and force a valid fieldType definition before
continuing.
1> default to WhitespaceTokenizer if no analysis chain defined. I can make get
onboard with this being reasonable behavior
2> do nothing. I think this is a bad solution, violates the "fail early"
policy, doesn't fail until someone happens to do a wildcard
3> put in a trivial fix (two places have to test for null like in the patch). I
don't like this either, I'm sure Junaid's next question would be that results
weren't as expected, everyone wastes time then.
Anyone want to weigh in?
