Robert Muir updated LUCENE-3014: -------------------------------- Attachment: LUCENE-3014.patch initial patch > comparator API for segment versions > ----------------------------------- > > Key: LUCENE-3014 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-3014 > Project: Lucene - Java > Issue Type: Task > Reporter: Robert Muir > Assignee: Uwe Schindler > Priority: Critical > Fix For: 3.2 > > Attachments: LUCENE-3014.patch > > > See LUCENE-3012 for an example. > Things get ugly if you want to use SegmentInfo.getVersion() > For example, what if we committed my patch, release 3.2, but later released > 3.1.1 (will "3.1.1" this be whats written and returned by this function?) > Then suddenly we broke the index format because we are using Strings here > without a reasonable comparator API. > In this case one should be able to compute if the version is < 3.2 safely. > If we don't do this, and we rely upon this version information internally in > lucene, I think we are going to break something. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
