Robert Muir commented on LUCENE-2226: ------------------------------------- bq. However this is a very minor break in bw compat: drop in jar replacement. The user will have to delete the snowball jar and use the contrib/analyzer one, if not already done. what else can we do though other than move it? the packages are the same Half of me agrees with your comment on LUCENE-2055 that we should have solid back compat for contrib analyzers. The other half says that this compat is already acheived via the build mechanism: simply use the old jar files, and that any work we do for compat here is wasted. what i am certain about is that this stuff isn't stable like core lucene and to clean it up, its going to take a long time if we restrict ourselves with the same policy that a stable library (core lucene) has. > move contrib/snowball to contrib/analyzers > ------------------------------------------ > > Key: LUCENE-2226 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-2226 > Project: Lucene - Java > Issue Type: Task > Components: contrib/analyzers > Reporter: Robert Muir > Assignee: Robert Muir > Fix For: 3.1 > > Attachments: LUCENE-2226.patch > > > to fix bugs in some duplicate, handcoded impls of these stemmers (nl, fr, ru, > etc) we should simply merge snowball and analyzers, and replace the buggy > impls with the proper snowball stemfilters. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: java-dev-unsubscr...@lucene.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: java-dev-h...@lucene.apache.org
