> My only concern is why is this necessary? > > Is feature parity the only reason? Currently in my application I want to extend the KNNVectorsFormat just like Codec, to plug in a completely different implementation of Vector Search Algorithm(which not in Java). As KNNVectorsFormat is part of Codec which allows applications on top of Lucene to extend the codec and their format. But due to lack of support of reloading of SPI in KNNVectorsFormat this not possible. @benwtrent please let me know if you have further questions. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
