Michael McCandless commented on LUCENE-1979:
--------------------------------------------
bq. Is it correct that we keep IndexInput#readChars() and
IndexInput#skipChars() for index format compatibility?
Yes, we need to keep them.
It was in 2.4 (LUCENE-510) when we switched to writing strings as UTF8, so any
index created by eg 2.3 (which we must be able to read through at least 3.9)
will need these methods.
> Remove remaining deprecations from indexer package
