Christine Poerschke commented on SOLR-15873:
--------------------------------------------
Removing of the code could simplify the remaining code but on a practical level
(at least theoretically) backwards compatibility would also need consideration
and it's possible that some custom {{ReRankCollector}} (which we don't know of)
does for some reason use the code that would be removed.
But I think it could be done and would bring some nice code simplifications,
e.g. something like this:
* Step 1 in (say) Solr 9.0
** factor out a {{ReRankRescorer}} class tailored to the "rescore all as part
of reranking" use case
** mark any methods that will go away as deprecated
* between (say) Solr 9.0 and Solr 9.1
** custom code (which we don't know of) using the deprecate methods continues
to build and behave just like before
** custom code owners have an opportunity to adjust their code, this may
involve them "forking" the 9.0 {{LTRRescorer}} code
* Step 2 in (say) Solr 9.1
** deprecated code goes away or its signature changes
** the code simplification happens
I've had a go at trying this out (and probably should have shared the outline
above first this morning, sorry) and to illustrate will open draft pull
requests shortly.
