Introduce Version in more places long before 4.0
------------------------------------------------
Key: LUCENE-2305
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-2305
Project: Lucene - Java
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Shai Erera
Fix For: 3.1
We need to introduce Version in as many places as we can (wherever it makes
sense of course), and preferably long before 4.0 (or shall I say 3.9?) is out.
That way, we can have a bunch of deprecated API now, that will be gone in 4.0,
rather than doing it one class at a time and never finish :).
The purpose is to introduce Version wherever it is mandatory now, and also in
places where we think it might be useful in the future (like most of our
Analyzers, configured classes and configuration classes).
I marked this issue for 3.1, though I don't expect it to end in 3.1. I still
think it will be done one step at a time, perhaps for cluster of classes
together. But on the other hand I don't want to mark it for 4.0.0 because that
needs to be resolved much sooner. So if I had a 3.9 version defined, I'd mark
it for 3.9. We can do several commits in one issue right? So this one can live
for a while in JIRA, while we gradually convert more and more classes.
The first candidate is InstantiatedIndexWriter which probably should take an
IndexWriterConfig. While I converted the code to use IWC, I've noticed
Instantiated defaults its maxFieldLength to the current default (10,000) which
is deprecated. I couldn't change it for back-compat reasons. But we can upgrade
it to accept IWC, and set to unlimited if the version is onOrAfter 3.1,
otherwise stay w/ the deprecated default.
if it's acceptable to have several commits in one issue, I can start w/
Instantiated, post a patch and then we can continue to more classes.
