Uwe Schindler commented on LUCENE-2953:
---------------------------------------
bq. Or a protected getter method that would do the cast (why bother with having
two fields)
Good idea, I am currently fixing the whole stuff (I was the one who added the
generics in Lucene 3.0). But I am now also removing initialize(int), this
construct is very broken. In trunk we can break backwards for this.
> PriorityQueue is inheriently broken if subclass attempts to use "heap"
> w/generic T bound to anything other then "Object"

> as discovered in SOLR-2410 the fact that the protected "heap" variable in
