Doug Cutting commented on LUCENE-1473: -------------------------------------- Would it take any more lines of code to remove Serializeable from the core classes and re-implement RemoteSearchable in a separate layer on top of the core APIs? That layer could be a contrib module and could get all the externalizeable love it needs. It could support a specific popular subset of query and filter classes, rather than arbitrary Query implementations. It would be extensible, so that if folks wanted to support new kinds of queries, they easily could. This other approach seems like a slippery slope, complicating already complex code with new concerns. It would be better to encapsulate these concerns in a layer atop APIs whose back-compatibility we already make promises about, no? > Implement standard Serialization across Lucene versions > ------------------------------------------------------- > > 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: custom-externalizable-reader.patch, LUCENE-1473.patch, > LUCENE-1473.patch, LUCENE-1473.patch, LUCENE-1473.patch > > Original Estimate: 8h > Remaining Estimate: 8h > > To maintain serialization compatibility between Lucene versions, > serialVersionUID needs to be added to classes that implement > java.io.Serializable. java.io.Externalizable may be implemented in classes > for faster performance. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
