Mark Miller commented on LUCENE-510:
------------------------------------
No problem Michael. Brave/Foolish, I certainly am one. Can't keep myself away
from these fresh issues :) My fault for not understanding the release process
really though. I thought I was roughly getting 2.3.2 ahead of time. Live and
learn :) I got a little lax inspecting all the issues for someone grabbing from
trunk...once all my tests pass I usually feel pretty good about it. Time to add
some upgrade index tests :)
Thanks so much for checking into this so quick - certainly saves me some time
today.

> Key: LUCENE-510
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-510
> Project: Lucene - Java
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Store
> Affects Versions: 2.1
> Reporter: Doug Cutting
> Assignee: Michael McCandless
> Fix For: 2.4
>
> Attachments: LUCENE-510.patch, LUCENE-510.take2.patch,
> SortExternal.java, strings.diff, TestSortExternal.java

> 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).
