Robert Muir updated LUCENE-3226: -------------------------------- Fix Version/s: 4.0 Assignee: Robert Muir > rename SegmentInfos.FORMAT_3_1 and improve description in CheckIndex > -------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: LUCENE-3226 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-3226 > Project: Lucene - Java > Issue Type: Improvement > Affects Versions: 3.1, 3.2 > Reporter: Hoss Man > Assignee: Robert Muir > Fix For: 3.3, 4.0 > > Attachments: LUCENE-3226.patch > > > A 3.2 user recently asked if something was wrong because CheckIndex was > reporting his (newly built) index version as... > {noformat} > Segments file=segments_or numSegments=1 version=FORMAT_3_1 [Lucene 3.1] > {noformat} > It seems like there are two very confusing pieces of information here... > 1) the variable name of SegmentInfos.FORMAT_3_1 seems like poor choice. All > other FORMAT_* constants in SegmentInfos are descriptive of the actual change > made, and not specific to the version when they were introduced. > 2) whatever the name of the FORMAT_* variable, CheckIndex is labeling it > "Lucene 3.1", which is missleading since that format is alwasy used in 3.2 > (and probably 3.3, etc...). > I suggest: > a) rename FORMAT_3_1 to something like "FORMAT_SEGMENT_RECORDS_VERSION" > b) change CheckIndex so that the label for the "newest" format always ends > with " and later" (ie: "Lucene 3.1 and later") so when we release versions > w/o a format change we don't have to remember to manual list them in > CheckIndex. when we *do* make format changes and update CheckIndex " and > later" can be replaced with " to X.Y" and the new format can be added -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
