Mark Miller reopened LUCENE-1748:
---------------------------------
> getPayloadSpans on org.apache.lucene.search.spans.SpanQuery should be abstract
> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: LUCENE-1748
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1748
> Project: Lucene - Java
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Query/Scoring
> Affects Versions: 2.4, 2.4.1
> Environment: all
> Reporter: Hugh Cayless
> Assignee: Mark Miller
> Fix For: 2.9
>
> Attachments: LUCENE-1748.patch, LUCENE-1748.patch
>
>
> I just spent a long time tracking down a bug resulting from upgrading to
> Lucene 2.4.1 on a project that implements some SpanQuerys of its own and was
> written against 2.3. Since the project's SpanQuerys didn't implement
> getPayloadSpans, the call to that method went to SpanQuery.getPayloadSpans
> which returned null and caused a NullPointerException in the Lucene code, far
> away from the actual source of the problem.
> It would be much better for this kind of thing to show up at compile time, I
> think.
> Thanks!
