Mark Miller commented on LUCENE-1808:
-------------------------------------
Done you have the above problem though:
{quote}
If you add createQueryWeight as a public method, then all of the Lucene classes
have to be changed to call it - otherwise, if you override it in a user Query,
it won't be called on that Query.
But anyone with an external Query class that calls {<-FIXED} createWeight will
not call createQueryWeight, and won't work correctly with classes that override
it. I guess if we make it final it would close that loop hole, but then thats a
loss from createWeight where you could override, and is still a back compat
break?

> Key: LUCENE-1808
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1808
> Project: Lucene - Java
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Query/Scoring
> Affects Versions: 2.9
> Reporter: Tim Smith
> Assignee: Mark Miller
>
> Now that the QueryWeight class has been removed, the public QueryWeight
> createQueryWeight() method on Query was also removed
> i have cases where i want to create a weight for a sub query (outside of the
> org.apache.lucene.search package) and i don't want the weight normalized
> (think BooleanQuery outside of the o.a.l.search package)
> in order to do this, i have to create a static Utils class inside
> o.a.l.search, pass in the Query and searcher, and have the static method call
> the protected createWeight method
> this should not be necessary
> This could be fixed in one of 2 ways:
> 1. make createWeight() public on Query (breaks back compat)
> 2. add the following method:
> {code}
> public Weight createQueryWeight(Searcher searcher) throws IOException {
> return createWeight(searcher);
> }
> {code}
> createWeight(Searcher) should then be deprectated in favor of the publicly
> accessible method
