Robert Muir updated LUCENE-2893:
--------------------------------

    Attachment: LUCENE-2893.patch

here is a patch against src/test, since it relies on test code to work.

i say we just drop the .java file in /dev-tools though, unless someone
has ideas for improvements of course.


> index upgrade tool for /dev-tools

> we change the index format from time to time, and people tracking trunk have 
> to re-index.
> I think we should put a (unsupported, scary) tool in /dev-tools that uses the 
> PreflexRW Codec to
> serialize the index to a 3.0 index (with your old trunk version), you can 
> then deserialize it back 
> with the newer trunk version, to the newest StandardCodec.
> this won't prevent all reindexes, but would work for changes under codec 
> control.
> mainly though, I think we could somehow add undeleteAll + this tool + apply 
> deletes to prevent
> the painful reindexing of luceneutil benchmarking indexes :)
