Martijn van Groningen updated LUCENE-1661: ------------------------------------------ Attachment: SortField.patch > Change visibility of getComparator method in SortField from protected to > public > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: LUCENE-1661 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1661 > Project: Lucene - Java > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Search > Affects Versions: 2.9 > Reporter: Martijn van Groningen > Priority: Minor > Attachments: SortField.patch > > > Hi, > Currently I'm using SortField for the creation of FieldComparators, but I ran > into an issue. > I cannot invoke SortField.getComparator(...) directly from my code, which > forces me to use a workaround. (subclass SortField and override the > getComparator method with visiblity public) > I'm proposing to make this method public. Currently I do not see any problems > changing the visibility to public, I do not know if there are any (and the > reason why this method is currently protected) > I think that this is a cleaner solution then the workaround I used and also > other developers can benefit from it. I will also attach a patch to this > issue based on the code in the trunk (26th of May). place). > Please let me know your thoughts about this. > Cheers, > Martijn > -- 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: java-dev-unsubscr...@lucene.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: java-dev-h...@lucene.apache.org
