Chris Male commented on LUCENE-2310:
------------------------------------
Earwin,
Yeah definitely we want to keep things separate. I am infavour of Indexable
being an indexing only construct, staying in the index part of the core space.
However Document will be a user space construct that spans both indexing and
searching since its API is designed to be flexible and easy to use and
manipulate.
Writing implements of Indexable will be an expert thing I imagine, so if you
index bytes taken from a socket, then I imagine you'll choose an implementation
on the search side that can handle it. If your stream from a socket has some
custom stuff, then you could write a custom consumer on the search side that
builds whatever search construct you want.

> 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. Therefore it seems ideal to try to deprecate AbstractField (and
> possible Fieldable), moving much of the functionality into Field and
> FieldType.
