Uwe Schindler commented on LUCENE-2103: --------------------------------------- One addition: In my opinion, this class should be final. With the private ctor it gets automatically final (you cannot extend without ctor), but should we change this for now, too? This would be a (small) BW break. > NoLockFactory should have a private constructor > ----------------------------------------------- > > Key: LUCENE-2103 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-2103 > Project: Lucene - Java > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Store > Affects Versions: 3.0 > Reporter: Shai Erera > Assignee: Uwe Schindler > Priority: Trivial > Fix For: 3.1 > > Attachments: LUCENE-2103.patch, LUCENE-2103.patch > > > NoLockFactory documents in its javadocs that one should use the static > getNoLockFactory() method. However the class does not declare a private empty > constructor, which breaks its Singleton purpose. We cannot add the empty > private constructor because that'd break break-compat (even though I think > it's very low chance someone actually instantiates the class), therefore > we'll add a @deprecated warning to the class about this, and add the method > in 4.0. I personally prefer to add an empty constructor w/ the @deprecated > method, but am fine either way. > Don't know if a patch is needed, as this is a trivial change. -- 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
