[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-671?page=comments#action_12434791 ] Karl Wettin commented on LUCENE-671: ------------------------------------
Cutting: > To make Documents fully-subclassible one would need to make their > serialization extensible. I find this a bit strange considering RAMDirectory was not made serializable until a few months ago.. But then it might just have been something preemptive. Or perhaps people serialize documents without adding them to the index? That too sounds quite fishy. I'm all for definalizing Term and Document as this is something required for my issue 550 index. > Hashtable based Document > ------------------------ > > Key: LUCENE-671 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-671 > Project: Lucene - Java > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Index, Search > Affects Versions: 2.0.0, 1.9 > Reporter: Chris > Priority: Minor > Attachments: HashDocument.java, TestBenchDocuments.java > > > I've attached a Document based on a hashtable and a performance test case. It > performs better in most cases (all but enumeration by my measurement), but > likely uses a larger memory footprint. The Document testcase will fail since > it accesses the "fields" variable directly and gets confused when it's not > the list it expected it to be. > If nothing else we would be interested in at least being able to extend > Document, which is currently declared final. (Anyone know the performance > gains on declaring a class final?) Currently we have to maintain a copy of > lucene which has methods and classes definalized and overriden. > There are other classes as well that could be declared non-final (Fieldable > comes to mind) since it's possible to make changes for project specific > situations in those aswell but that's off-topic. -- 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]
