Shai Erera commented on LUCENE-4565: ------------------------------------ In fact, now that I think of it, one should really care which child/sibling we return. All that matters is how to traverse the taxonomy tree. You start from ROOT (ordinal=0), ask for children[0], and then depends if you want to do DFS/BFS you call siblings[children[0]] or children[children[0]] .. what does it matter if the child is the youngest/oldest? > Simplify TaxoReader ParentArray/ChildrenArrays > ---------------------------------------------- > > Key: LUCENE-4565 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-4565 > Project: Lucene - Core > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: modules/facet > Reporter: Shai Erera > Assignee: Shai Erera > Priority: Minor > Attachments: LUCENE-4565.patch > > > TaxoReader exposes two structures which provide information about a > categories parent/childs/siblings: ParentArray and ChildrenArrays. > ChildrenArrays are derived (i.e. created) from ParentArray. > I propose to consolidate all that into one API ParentInfo, or > CategoryTreeInfo (a better name?) which will provide the same information, > only from one object. So instead of making these calls: > {code} > int[] parents = taxoReader.getParentArray(); > int[] youngestChilds = taxoReader.getChildrenArrays().getYoungestChildArray(); > int[] olderSiblings = taxoReader.getChildrenArrays().getOlderSiblingArray(); > {code} > one would make these calls: > {code} > int[] parents = taxoReader.getParentInfo().parents(); > int[] youngestChilds = taxoReader.getParentInfo().youngestChilds(); > int[] olderSiblings = taxoReader.getParentInfo().olderSiblings(); > {code} > Not a big change, just consolidate more code into one logical place. All of > these arrays will continue to be lazily allocated. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
