Mark Miller updated LUCENE-831:
-------------------------------

    Attachment: LUCENE-831.patch

This should give us some more concrete to start from. Still early and rough (I 
started to put nocommits, but too early to worry much yet). I have pushed 
things in general to the proposed API, but its still fairly rough. Core sort 
tests pass (no custom comparator, remote), but custom parsers are currently 
ignored. A bunch of the unfun back compat / little stuff is undone.

bq. How about something like this (NOTE: not compiled/tested):

Thats kind of what I did (though not named as nicely, I'll update), but does 
that solve easily telling the IndexReader (valuesource) what parsers to use by 
a user? I suppose what your proposing is no custom parser? Instead a custom 
inverter - but still the problem of a user simply specifying inverters per 
field when initing the indexreader? Of course you can do a whole new 
UninversionVS imp, but it just seemed a little heavy handed compared to giving 
a parser the SortField... I'll update the code a bit and think some...

> Motivation:
> 1) Complete overhaul the API/implementation of "FieldCache" type things...
>     a) eliminate global static map keyed on IndexReader (thus
>         eliminating synch block between completley independent IndexReaders)
>     b) allow more customization of cache management (ie: use 
>         expiration/replacement strategies, disk backed caches, etc)
>     c) allow people to define custom cache data logic (ie: custom
>         parsers, complex datatypes, etc... anything tied to a reader)
>     d) allow people to inspect what's in a cache (list of CacheKeys) for
>         an IndexReader so a new IndexReader can be likewise warmed. 
>     e) Lend support for smarter cache management if/when
>         IndexReader.reopen is added (merging of cached data from subReaders).
> 2) Provide backwards compatibility to support existing FieldCache API with
>     the new implementation, so there is no redundent caching as client code
>     migrades to new API.
