Earwin Burrfoot commented on LUCENE-2480: ----------------------------------------- Wow! So fast! :) bq. You didn't remove the .zip indexes? Your patch didn't remove them for me, patch file format can't handle binary stuff. bq. You removed the code from TestBackwardsCompatibilty ...... So I don't think we should remove that piece of code. Several lines later there sits a piece of absolutely identical commented-out code. The only difference is that it doesn't use "preLockless" in method names. If someone really needs it later, the code I left over suits him no less than the code I removed. bq. TestIndexFileDeleter failed 'cause of deletable file - fixed it. Cool! It's very strange I missed the failure. bq. Renamed FORMAT_FLEX_POSTING to FORMAT_4_0 FORMAT_4_0_FLEX_POSTINGS? I loved the self-descriptiveness :) And, yup. Bye-bye to the byte. > Remove support for pre-3.0 indexes > ---------------------------------- > > Key: LUCENE-2480 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-2480 > Project: Lucene - Java > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Index > Reporter: Shai Erera > Assignee: Shai Erera > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 4.0 > > Attachments: LUCENE-2480.patch, LUCENE-2480.patch, LUCENE-2480.patch, > LUCENE-2480.patch > > > We should remove support for 2.x (and 1.9) indexes in 4.0. It seems that > nothing can be done in 3x because there is no special code which handles 1.9, > so we'll leave it there. This issue should cover: > # Remove the .zip indexes > # Remove the unnecessary code from SegmentInfo and SegmentInfos. Mike > suggests we compare the version headers at the top of SegmentInfos, in 2.9.x > vs 3.0.x, to see which ones can go. > # remove FORMAT_PRE from FieldInfos > # Remove old format from TermVectorsReader > If you know of other places where code can be removed, then please post a > comment here. > I don't know when I'll have time to handle it, definitely not in the next few > days. So if someone wants to take a stab at it, be my guest. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@lucene.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@lucene.apache.org
