ChrisHegarty opened a new pull request #329:
URL: https://github.com/apache/lucene/pull/329
# Description
It is currently not possible for custom merge policies to add additional
diagnostics.
# Solution
Add a new method, `SegmentInfo::addDiagnostics`, that allows to add or
modify the segment's diagnostics.
Alternatives:
- The new method could be constrained to simply "add", rather than "modify"
(it could throw an exception if the given diagnostics map contains an entry
with a key that is already present in the segment's diagnostics )
- We could avoid the new method completely and simply expose the existing
`setDiagnostics`, by adding the public modifier.
On balance, the addition of the new `addDiagnostics` seems like a more
cooperative way for custom merge policies to behave.
# Tests
An additional test scenarios, testAddDiagnostics, has been added that
exercises the behaviour.
