Chris Male commented on LUCENE-2628: ------------------------------------ I think a util jar is a great idea but not so we can publish it for others. As we modularise more, there will be utility classes that are useful across multiple modules. I dont think they should be stuck into lucene-core just because its the only consistent dependency. But I don't think OBS fits into this pool necessary since it really is tuned for the search func in lucene-core. But I'll fight this fight in another issue when I propose such a module :) > Extract OpenBitSet to Apache Commons > ------------------------------------ > > Key: LUCENE-2628 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-2628 > Project: Lucene - Java > Issue Type: Wish > Reporter: Stu Hood > > o.a.l.util.OpenBitSet is a great alternative to java.util.BitSet, and it is > generally useful outside of the search field. It would be great if OpenBitSet > were available outside of Lucene proper, perhaps as part of Apache Commons. > Aside from the communication required to accomplish this, there is the small > issue of OpenBitSet extending o.a.l.search.DocIdSet in Lucene 3.0. There is > very little logic contained in DocIdSet, so it could probably become an > interface: Lucene proper could then extend the extract version of OpenBitSet > to implement DocIdSet. -- 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
