Ilan Ginzburg commented on SOLR-14680: -------------------------------------- Based on the Jira description, interfaces defined here don’t aim to replace any existing public API so there’s no compatibility being broken. I believe the first implementations of these interfaces should be the existing concrete classes they abstract and the “proof” of usefulness would be replacing in the code references to the concrete classes by references to these interfaces. This will likely involve non trivial amount of cleanup/refactoring and will also guide the definition of the interfaces. Once internal references use these interfaces, it will be relatively easy to replace actual implementations with new ones (as well as slowly change the interfaces and their implementations to clean things up). > Provide simple interfaces to our concrete SolrCloud classes > ----------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SOLR-14680 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-14680 > Project: Solr > Issue Type: Improvement > Security Level: Public(Default Security Level.

We will start out with a subset of required interfaces. We > guarantee is that signatures of methods in these interfaces will not be > deleted/changed . But we may add more methods as and when it suits us -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: issues-unsubscr...@lucene.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: issues-h...@lucene.apache.org
