Yonik Seeley updated LUCENE-438: -------------------------------- Attachment: yonik_Token.txt > add Token.setTermText(), remove final > ------------------------------------- > > Key: LUCENE-438 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-438 > Project: Lucene - Java > Type: Improvement > Versions: CVS Nightly - Specify date in submission > Reporter: Yonik Seeley > Priority: Minor > Attachments: yonik_Token.txt > > The Token class should be more friendly to classes not in it's package: > 1) add setTermText() > 2) remove final from class and toString() > 3) add clone() > Support for (1): > TokenFilters in the same package as Token are able to do things like > "t.termText = t.termText.toLowerCase();" which is more efficient, but more > importantly less error prone. Without the ability to change *only* the term > text, a new Token must be created, and one must remember to set all the > properties correctly. This exact issue caused this bug: > http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-437 > Support for (2): > Removing final allows one to subclass Token. I didn't see any performance > impact after removing final. > I can go into more detail on why I want to subclass Token if anyone is > interested. > Support for (3): > - support for a synonym TokenFilter, where one needs to make two tokens > from one (same args that support (1), and esp important if instance is a > subclass of Token). -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
