Adrien Grand commented on LUCENE-4399:
--------------------------------------
bq. AppendingCodec extends Lucene40Codec and returns AppendingPF for every
field.
But I think we would like it to extend Lucene43Codec when we release it and
this will break back compat for Appending?
bq. remove AppendingCodec entirely (just move to test-framework), because
someone could do the above themselves.
I like this idea better. People who want an appending codec just need to extend
the last Lucene4xCodec.getPostingsFormatForField and there will be no back
compat issue. Maybe we should just advertise in Lucene4xCodec javadoc that this
is how to obtain an appending codec.
+1 for your patch
