Re: New FieldSortedHitQueue uses Java 1.4 feature

+1 for 1.4 also.

If folks need Lucene in 1.3 or 1.2 environments, they can use Lucene 
1.3.  Seems reasonable to me.

I'm for 1.4 move, as I've been using 1.4 for ages!
And even 1.5 is now out.
+1 for being forced to support Java 1.2 and 1.3.

I hadn't heard any discussion about bumping up to Java 1.4 in the

drop support for pre 1.4 JVMs?
There hasn't been any discussion yet, so, by default, we should still

try to make things work in Java 1.2.

That said, maybe we should have such a discussion.  Folks have been
encountering strange bugs using Lucene in Java 1.3 recently.  There
are
some features of Java 1.4 which could be useful, e.g., LinkedHashMap,
for easy implementation of LRU caches, regex support, logging, xml
parsers, etc.  So there are good reasons to move to 1.4.
Are there reasons not to move to 1.4?  1.4 has been out for two years

now, and is pretty stable, but perhaps there are reasons some folks
are
still unable to use it.  If so, please speak up.
