Eks Dev updated LUCENE-1219: ---------------------------- Attachment: LUCENE-1219.patch this one keeps addition of new methods localized to AbstractField, does not change Fieldable interface... it looks like it could work done this way with a few instanceof checks in FieldsWriter, This one has dependency on LUCENE-1217 it will not give you any benefit if you directly implement your Fieldable without extending AbstractField, therefore I would suggest to eventually change Fieldable to support all these methods that operate with offset/length. Or someone clever finds some way to change an interface without braking backwards compatibility :) > support array/offset/ length setters for Field with binary data > --------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: LUCENE-1219 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1219 > Project: Lucene - Java > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Index > Reporter: Eks Dev > Assignee: Michael McCandless > Priority: Minor > Attachments: LUCENE-1219.patch, LUCENE-1219.patch, LUCENE-1219.patch > > > currently Field/Fieldable interface supports only compact, zero based byte > arrays.
