Uwe Schindler updated LUCENE-1693:
----------------------------------

    Description: 
This patch makes the following improvements to AttributeSource and
TokenStream/Filter:

- introduces interfaces for all Attributes. The corresponding
  implementations have the postfix 'Impl', e.g. TermAttribute and
  TermAttributeImpl. AttributeSource now has a factory for creating
  the Attribute instances; the default implementation looks for
  implementing classes with the postfix 'Impl'. Token now implements
  all 6 TokenAttribute interfaces.

- new method added to AttributeSource:
  addAttributeImpl(AttributeImpl). Using reflection it walks up in the
  class hierarchy of the passed in object and finds all interfaces
  that the class or superclasses implement and that extend the
  Attribute interface. It then adds the interface->instance mappings
  to the attribute map for each of the found interfaces.

- removes the set/getUseNewAPI() methods (including the standard
  ones). Instead it is now enough to only implement the new API,
  if one old TokenStream implements still the old API (next()/next(Token)),
  it is wrapped automatically. The delegation path is determined via
  reflection (the patch determines, which of the three methods was
  overridden).

- Token is no longer deprecated, instead it implements all 6 standard
  token interfaces (see above). The wrapper for next() and next(Token)
  uses this, to automatically map all attribute interfaces to one
  TokenWrapper instance (implementing all 6 interfaces), that contains
  a Token instance. next() and next(Token) exchange the inner Token
  instance as needed. For the new incrementToken(), only one
  TokenWrapper instance is visible, delegating to the currect reusable
  Token. This API also preserves custom Token subclasses, that maybe
  created by very special token streams (see example in Backwards-Test).

- AttributeImpl now has a default implementation of toString that uses
  reflection to print out the values of the attributes in a default
  formatting. This makes it a bit easier to implement AttributeImpl,
  because toString() was declared abstract before.

- Cloning is now done much more efficiently in
  captureState. The method figures out which unique AttributeImpl
  instances are contained as values in the attributes map, because
  those are the ones that need to be cloned. It creates a single
  linked list that supports deep cloning (in the inner class
  AttributeSource.State). AttributeSource keeps track of when this
  state changes, i.e. whenever new attributes are added to the
  AttributeSource. Only in that case will captureState recompute the
  state, otherwise it will simply clone the precomputed state and
  return the clone. restoreState(AttributeSource.State) walks the
  linked list and uses the copyTo() method of AttributeImpl to copy
  all values over into the attribute that the source stream
  (e.g. SinkTokenizer) uses. 

- Tee- and SinkTokenizer were deprecated, because they use
Token instances for caching. This is not compatible to the new API
using AttributeSource.State objects. You can still use the old
deprecated ones, but new features provided by new Attribute types
may get lost in the chain. A replacement is a new TeeSinkTokenFilter,
which has a factory to create new Sink instances, that have compatible
attributes. Sink instances created by one Tee can also be added to
another Tee, as long as the attribute implementations are compatible
(it is not possible to add a sink from a tee using one Token instance
to a tee using the six separate attribute impls). In this case UOE is thrown.

The cloning performance can be greatly improved if not multiple
AttributeImpl instances are used in one TokenStream. A user can
e.g. simply add a Token instance to the stream instead of the individual
attributes. Or the user could implement a subclass of AttributeImpl that
implements exactly the Attribute interfaces needed. I think this
should be considered an expert API (addAttributeImpl), as this manual
optimization is only needed if cloning performance is crucial. I ran
some quick performance tests using Tee/Sink tokenizers (which do
cloning) and the performance was roughly 20% faster with the new
API. I'll run some more performance tests and post more numbers then.

Note also that when we add serialization to the Attributes, e.g. for
supporting storing serialized TokenStreams in the index, then the
serialization should benefit even significantly more from the new API
than cloning. 

This issue contains one backwards-compatibility break:
TokenStreams/Filters/Tokenizers should normally be final
(see LUCENE-1753 for the explaination). Some of these core classes are 
not final and so one could override the next() or next(Token) methods.
In this case, the backwards-wrapper would automatically use
incrementToken(), because it is implemented, so the overridden
method is never called. To prevent users from errors not visible
during compilation or testing (the streams just behave wrong),
this patch makes all implementation methods final
(next(), next(Token), incrementToken()), whenever the class
itsself is not final. This is a BW break, but users will clearly see,
that they have done something unsupoorted and should better
create a custom TokenFilter with their additional implementation
(instead of extending a core implementation).

For further changing contrib token streams the following procedere should be 
used:

    *  rewrite and replace next(Token)/next() implementations by new API
    * if the class is final, no next(Token)/next() methods needed (must be 
removed!!!)
    * if the class is non-final add the following methods to the class:
{code:java}
      /** @deprecated Will be removed in Lucene 3.0. This method is final, as 
it should
       * not be overridden. Delegates to the backwards compatibility layer. */
      public final Token next(final Token reusableToken) throws 
java.io.IOException {
        return super.next(reusableToken);
      }

      /** @deprecated Will be removed in Lucene 3.0. This method is final, as 
it should
       * not be overridden. Delegates to the backwards compatibility layer. */
      public final Token next() throws java.io.IOException {
        return super.next();
      }
{code}
Also the incrementToken() method must be final in this case
(and the new method end() of LUCENE-1448)

Forgot the new TeeSinkTokenFilter and reformatted the text to use NLs.
