[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-663?page=comments#action_12429816 ] Mark Harwood commented on LUCENE-663: -------------------------------------
Hi Karel. Many thanks for taking the time to make a contribution. I would personally find it useful if you could describe your highlighter in terms of how it differs from existing implementations (the existing one in "contrib" and Ronnie Kolehmainen's recent contribution here: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-644?page=all ) . This would help us understand whether to consider this as an improvement to the existing approach or an alternative with different functionality. I know for example that the existing contrib highlighter has all 3 of the functions you list as features (TermPositionVector/Analyzer support and support for all Lucene queries). The sorts of improvement I can think of would be if your solution was a) faster b) a lighter memory footprint c) able to highlight span/phrase matches correctly d) simpler to use So can you clarify what your motivations were and where you see the main differences/improvements over existing code?
