Hoss Man updated LUCENE-1887:
-----------------------------
Fix Version/s: (was: 2.9)
bq. These classes have not relation with the queryparser code, the queryparser
only uses it.
that seems like a pretty strong argument to promote it into it's own contrib
... no other contrib is going to start depending on queryParser just to get
access to a messages class -- And if we wait until 3.x to move it to it's own
contrib, we make a lot of headaches for any users who start(ed) using the
queryParser contrib in 2.9, because all of hte sudden their code will stop
working at runtime because the classes can't be found.
(it's an easy problem to fix: tell them to use the new jar as well, but it
reflects badly on the project when people encounter annoyances like that when
upgrading)
That said: i'm not going to argue that hard if no more closely involved in the
contrib thinks it's worth moving .. removing 2.9 fix-for.
> o.a.l.messages should be moved/renamed

> Key: LUCENE-1887
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1887
> Project: Lucene - Java
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Hoss Man
> Priority: Minor
>
> contrib/queryParser contains an org.apache.lucene.messages package containing
> some generallized code that (claims in it's javadocs) is not specific to the
> queryParser.
> If this is truely general purpose code, it should probably be moved out of
> hte queryParser contrib -- either into it's own contrib, or into the core
> (it's very small)
> Alternately: if the code isn't super reusable, the package name should
> probably be changed to be a subpackage of org.apache.lucene.queryParser ...
> it tends to be very confusing when all of the code in a contrib doesn't fall
> into a clear organizational namespace.
> I've marked this issue for 2.9 so we at least think about it prior to release
> ... it is a brand new public API, so this is out best chance to change it if
> we want ... but it is by no means a blocker for 2.9
