Jason Rutherglen commented on LUCENE-1473: ------------------------------------------ Currently serialization between 2.3 and 2.4 is broken, backwards compatibility is broken. Saying "we don't really support it" means Serializable will not be implemented in any classes. This really simple Java stuff that I'm surprised is raising concern here. > Implement Externalizable in main top level searcher classes > ----------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: LUCENE-1473 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1473 > Project: Lucene - Java > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Search > Affects Versions: 2.4 > Reporter: Jason Rutherglen > Priority: Minor > Attachments: LUCENE-1473.patch > > > To maintain serialization compatibility between Lucene versions, major > classes can implement Externalizable.
