The only Java 5 thing in core is LUCENE-2052, for which I find no Eclipse
plugin. So "grep" with heavy regex is needed and maybe an UnexpectedSuccess
on finding some more varargs.

The current tests are not converted to generics, but that is really
unimportant because it is not public API.

 

Robert: I think the contrib things are the only leftovers.

Hi Uwe,

I think we all appreciate the heavy committing you have done for 3.0!

With regards to the java 5 issue, I think all that is left is contrib?
Is there any more work in core to be done for java 5 in 3.0?

Hi other developers,

 

I am still on heavy committing, but I think we have fixed almost everyting
for Lucene 3.0. The public API uses generics, enum, varargs,...; all
deprecations scheduled for 3.0 are removed. The following issues are still
open:

The red one is finished, I just wait for comments or something against. The
yellow one needs to be discussed. The other ones are simple fixes that
should be resolved soon.

 

I left out the Java-5-Issue, because it is a neverending story (you can
always find unneeded casts, generics warnings,.), but the import thing is,
that the public API is generified. Everything else can be easily fixed after
release of 3.0.

 

LUCENE-1558 has one problem: The methods were deprecated in 2.9, but
reappear with different behaviour in 3.0, which is bad. Maybe we should add
them in 3.1 again, so users coming from 2.9 will not see strange behaviour.
Else it should be marked red in the changes backwards section, that the
methods were undeprecated, because they are no longer the same methods like
before and now have different behaviour. So something like: "was deprecated
in 2.9 because no support for the previous behaviour anymore. Readded in 3.0
as "new methods".

 

I want to start the release process during the weekend (my first tests as
release manager), so I can throw out RC1 on next Monday or so.
