Robert Muir commented on LUCENE-2064: ------------------------------------- Uwe, I agree, I think you should set to 3.0 I think there was some discussion on the list about allow a getField() or something for multitermqueries, but in the meantime, this patch will work for now, and its internal to the highlighter so its not like it would have to be deprecated later. > Highlighter should support all MultiFieldQuery subclasses without casts > ----------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: LUCENE-2064 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-2064 > Project: Lucene - Java > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: contrib/highlighter > Affects Versions: 2.9.1 > Reporter: Simon Willnauer > Assignee: Simon Willnauer > Fix For: 3.1 > > Attachments: LUCENE-2064.txt > > > In order to support MultiTermQuery subclasses the Highlighter component > applies instanceof checks for concrete classes from the lucene core. This > prevents classes like RegexQuery in contrib from being supported. Introducing > dependencies on other contribs is not feasible just for being supported by > the highlighter. > While the instanceof checks and subsequent casts might hopefully go somehow > away in the future but for supporting more multterm queries I have a > alternative approach using a fake IndexReader that uses a RewriteMethod to > force the MTQ to pass the field name to the given reader without doing any > real work. It is easier to explain once you see the patch - I will upload > shortly. -- 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
