Grant Ingersoll commented on LUCENE-1297:
-----------------------------------------
Patch applies cleanly and the tests pass.
Ideally, there would be standalone tests for each of the distance measures that
test them outside the context of spell checking.
I think the Jaro-Winkler threshold should be configurable via a
setter/constructor. A getter would make sense too, so that one can see what
the threshold is.
Also, the TRStringDistance explicitly states that it is not thread safe. I
believe it is now being used in a non thread-safe manner. FWIW, I see no
reason why it can't be made thread-safe. All of those member variables are
being allocated in the getDistance method, so no reason not to just make them
local variables, I think.

>
> Updated spelling code to allow for other string distance measures to be used.
> Created StringDistance interface.
> Modified existing Levenshtein distance measure to implement interface (and
> renamed class).
> Verified that change to Levenshtein distance didn't impact runtime
> performance.
> Implemented Jaro/Winkler distance metric
> Modified SpellChecker to take distacne measure as in constructor or in set
> method and to use interface when calling.
