---------------------------------------
Summary: Patch for making some variable names more consistent with
the other parts of the code.
Key: LUCENE-9019
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-9019
Project: Lucene - Core
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Yusuke Shinyama
Fix For: trunk
Hello, we're developing an automated system that detects inconsistent variable
names in a large software project. Our system checks if each variable name is
consistent with other variables in the project in its usage pattern, and
proposes correct candidates if inconsistency is detected. This is a part of
academic research that we hope to publish soon, but as a part of the
evaluation, we applied our systems to your projects and got a few interesting
results. We carefully reviewed our system output and manually created a patch
to correct a few variable
names. We would be delighted if this patch is found to be useful. If you have a
question or suggestion regarding this patch, we'd happily answer. Thank you.
P.S. our patch is purely for readability purposes and does not change any
functionality. A couple of issues that we've noticed were left untouched. For
example, mixed use of variable names "len" and "length" were fairly widespread,
but we have only corrected a few notable
instances to minimize our impact.
