IndexOutput.writeString() should write length in bytes
------------------------------------------------------
Key: LUCENE-510
URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-510
Project: Lucene - Java
Type: Improvement
Components: Store
Versions: 2.1
Reporter: Doug Cutting
Fix For: 2.1
We should change the format of strings written to indexes so that the length of
the string is in bytes, not Java characters. This issue has been discussed at:
http://www.mail-archive.com/java-dev@lucene.apache.org/msg01970.html
We must increment the file format number to indicate this change. At least the
format number in the segments file should change.
I'm targetting this for 2.1, i.e., we shouldn't commit it to trunk until after
2.0 is released, to minimize incompatible changes between 1.9 and 2.0 (other
than removal of deprecated features).
