tool to auto generate stub analysis factories
---------------------------------------------
Key: SOLR-396
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-396
Project: Solr
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Hoss Man
Assignee: Hoss Man
Priority: Minor
a pet project i've bene working on in some spare time has been looking at
source code and byte code analysis toolkits with the goal of being able to
write a tool that could be pointed at a jar, and it would generate stub
Factories for any TokenFilter or Tokenizer classes it found not already in Solr.
in the end, it looks like a combination of reflection and some simple pattern
matching is actually the best way to go (byte code loses info about param
names, and reflection saves a lot of the hassle involved in pure source code
analysis)
i've got a proof of concept ready that i'll attach shortly. I hope to have
some time next week to resubmit this as a patch that integrates it with the
solr build.xml in such a way that anytime we add/update a lucene jar, we can
run "ant stub-factories" and have 99% of the work done for us.
