Shawn Heisey commented on LUCENE-7960: -------------------------------------- An example of where I used the ellipsis notation in my own code to make a boolean argument optional: {code:java} /** * Fully close a connection, statement, and result set, ignoring any errors * that occur. Any of the three resources here can be null, but at least one * of them must NOT be null. * * @param rs the ResultSet to close. * @param st the Statement to close. * @param conn The Connection to close. * @param forceFlags This odd ellipsis parameter is used for one thing * currently: a flag to indicate whether or not a close will be * forced on all provided resources even if everything doesn't * match up. In theory, a statement derived from the resultset * and connections derived from either one should be exactly the * same object as the ones provided to the method. If the flag is * false, then only the first non-null resource provided and any * parent resources derived from that resource will be closed. If * it is true, ALL resources including derived resources will be * closed. Mismatches will be logged either way. The ellipsis * notation is so that this parameter is optional. If omitted, it * will default to false. * @throws IllegalArgumentException if all three resources are null. */ public static void fullQuietClose(ResultSet rs, Statement st, Connection conn, boolean... forceFlags) {code} > NGram filters -- add option to keep short terms > ----------------------------------------------- > > Key: LUCENE-7960 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-7960 > Project: Lucene - Core > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: modules/analysis > Reporter: Shawn Heisey > Priority: Major > Attachments: LUCENE-7960.patch, LUCENE-7960.patch > > Time Spent: 0.5h > Remaining Estimate: 0h > > When ngram or edgengram filters are used, any terms that are shorter than the > minGramSize are completely removed from the token stream. > This is probably 100% what was intended, but I've seen it cause a lot of > problems for users.
