Shai Erera commented on LUCENE-2310: ------------------------------------ How about if getFields() will return an Iterable<Field>? It'll need to be deprecated and a new method created, but it can be simple enough solution to avoid one adding fields directly to Document w/o passing through doc.add first. If you do end up removing getFields(), then I'd like to have a clear() on Document. I once proposed it and was told to call getFields().clear() instead, which allows me to reuse my Document instance. If I lose that option, I'd appreciate if a direct clear() on Document will exist instead. > Reduce Fieldable, AbstractField and Field complexity > ---------------------------------------------------- > > Key: LUCENE-2310 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-2310 > Project: Lucene - Java > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: Index > Reporter: Chris Male > Attachments: LUCENE-2310-Deprecate-AbstractField.patch, > LUCENE-2310-Deprecate-AbstractField.patch, > LUCENE-2310-Deprecate-AbstractField.patch > > > In order to move field type like functionality into its own class, we really > need to try to tackle the hierarchy of Fieldable, AbstractField and Field. > Currently AbstractField depends on Field, and does not provide much more > functionality that storing fields, most of which are being moved over to > FieldType.
