Steven Parkes commented on LUCENE-796:
--------------------------------------

This code is a little bit twisted; took me a while to figure out how it was 
working.

I'm wondering what you want to do with the variables if they're available ... 
not that I'm terribly against making them protected (or adding 
gettter/setters), but I see another issue here.

The code right now takes two paths: if you pass a field, it just calls QP via 
super. If you don't pass a field, it loops through each of the fields it has, 
which I suspect is usually what one wants. But in this loop, it also calls 
super, which means you don't get a chance in your derived class to override it 
again. I think it would make more sense to not call super in the loop case. So 
derived classes can get access to the call both when no field is passed and 
when each field is passed.

Out of curiosity, would this do anything for you? If these were to be made 
protected, would you just be writing the loop yourself?

> In MultiFieldQueryParser the two methods 
>   protected Query getFuzzyQuery(String field, String termStr, float 
> minSimilarity) throws ParseException
>   protected Query getWildcardQuery(String field, String termStr) throws 
> ParseException
> are intended to be overwritten if one would like to avoid fuzzy and wildcard 
> queries. However, the String[] fields attribute of this class is private and 
> hence it is not accessible in subclasses of MFQParser. If you just change it 
> to protected this issue should be solved.
