Doug Cutting commented on LUCENE-1473: -------------------------------------- The documentation should probably be fixed to state that Lucene's use of Serializeable currently assumes that all parties are using the exact same version of Lucene. That's the default for Serializeable, but it probably bears stating explicitly. Then we should decide, going forward, whether this should change, and, if so, for which classes and how. Such a policy should be agreed on before code is written, no? > Implement Externalizable in main top level searcher classes > ----------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: LUCENE-1473 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1473 > Project: Lucene - Java > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Search > Affects Versions: 2.4 > Reporter: Jason Rutherglen > Priority: Minor > Attachments: LUCENE-1473.patch > > > To maintain serialization compatibility between Lucene versions, major > classes can implement Externalizable.
