I'm summarizing here... > Today when you make a Field to add to a document you can set things > index or not, stored or not, analyzed or not, details like omitTfAP, > omitNorms, index term vectors (separately controlling > offsets/positions), etc. > I think we should factor these out into a new class (FieldType?). > Then you could re-use this FieldType instance across multiple fields. > The Field instance would still hold the actual value. > We could then do per-field analyzers by adding a setAnalyzer on the > FieldType, instead of the separate PerFieldAnalzyerWrapper (likewise > for per-field codecs (with flex), where we now have > PerFieldCodecWrapper). > This would NOT be a schema! It's just refactoring what we already > specify today. EG it's not serialized into the index. > This has been discussed before, and I know Michael Busch opened a more > ambitious (I think?) issue. I think this is a good first baby step. We could > consider a hierarchy of FIeldType (NumericFieldType, etc.) but maybe hold > off on that for starters... -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
