Noble Paul updated SOLR-810:
----------------------------
Description:
javabin can be as efficient as a format like say thrift/protocol buffers if we
do not pay the price of a string per name. We can easily achieve it using a new
type KNOWN_STRING.
KNOWN_STRING can be like an EXTERN_STRING but it is just that these are
preconfigured string names which is a map of index -> string . The known string
list can probably have a version . The client must be using a newer version
known string list than the server .
an example looks like
{code}
1:responseHeader
2:QTime
3:status
{code}
A newer version of the string list can add a new string at a new index but it
must never change the index of an existing string. This is similar to an IDL
file of thrift/protocol buffers but w/o any of those complexities
So when an EXTERN_STRING is written it first looks up in the KNOWN_STRING map.
If it is present , it is written as a KNOWN_STRING instead of an EXTERN_STRING
. The value will be the index
was:
This is really not an issue . But if we ever are going to make any changes to
the next version of javabin let us not miss anything .Any new suggestions are
also welcome
