Uwe Schindler commented on LUCENE-4690:
---------------------------------------
bq. As far as I can tell nothing actually uses the hash codes generated by
these methods (not even any tests).
The return value (the hash) is used by
NumericTokenStreeam#NumericTermAttribute.fillBytesRef():
{code:java}
@Override
public int fillBytesRef() {
try {
assert valueSize == 64 || valueSize == 32;
return (valueSize == 64) ?
NumericUtils.longToPrefixCoded(value, shift, bytes) :
NumericUtils.intToPrefixCoded((int) value, shift, bytes);
} catch (IllegalArgumentException iae) {
// return empty token before first or after last
bytes.length = 0;
return 0;
}
}
{code}
Other comments:
- The masking away of invalid shifts is a no-go to me. This leads to unexpected
behaviour.
- A agree grow() does not need to be used for this stuff. We can simply
reallocate, as we know size exactly.
