Shai Erera updated LUCENE-4659:
-------------------------------
Attachment: LUCENE-4659.patch
More cleanup. Here's a summary of all the changes:
* CategoryPath is now immutable. As such it does not implement Cloneable and
clone() is removed.
* CategoryPath.add is removed - used only by tests, and they were converted to
use alternative methods, e.g. subpath().
* CategoryPath.subpath returns a sub-path of the CategoryPath (used to traverse
parents)
* CategoryPath exposes two public final 'components' and 'length' members. This
removed the length() and getComponent() methods (getComponent was only used in
test). I added jdocs to these two members.
* CategoryPath no longer implements Serializable.
* CategoryPath.\*serialize\* methods moved to CategoryPathUtils under the cl2o
package, as it's the only one that uses them.
* All 'prefixLen' variants were removed. Instead one should call
cp.subpath(prefix).
** This allowed removing all prefixLen variants from TaxoWriterCache, and nuke
3 duplicate methods in DirTaxoWriter.
* Handled a TODO in DirTaxoReader - since now CategoryPath is immutable, it can
hold caches to-from CategoryPath instead of String.
CategoryPath is now 215 lines, instead of ~1100 !

> CategoryPath is supposed to be a simple object which holds a category path's
> components, and offers some utility methods that can be used during indexing
> and search.
> Currently, it exposes lots of methods which aren't used, unless by tests - I
> want to get rid of them. Also, the internal implementation manages 3 char[]
> for holding the path components, while I think it would have been simpler if
> it maintained a String[]. I'd like to explore that option too (the input is
> anyway String, so why copy char[]?).
> Ultimately, I'd like CategoryPath to be immutable. I was able to get rid most
> of the mutable methods. The ones that remain will probably go away when I
> move from char[] to String[]. Immuntability is important because in various
> places in the code we convert a CategoryPath back and forth to String, with
> TODOs to stop doing that if CP was immutable.
> Will attach a patch that covers the first step - get rid of unneeded methods
> and beginning to make it immutable.
> Perhaps this can be done in multiple commits?
