Earwin Burrfoot commented on LUCENE-2345:
-----------------------------------------
Ahem, that directly clashes with my inflight patch?
I'm going to land create/reopen/close refactoring pretty soon, and then finish
plugins.
(Which was an arduous task before, as initialization paths for SegmentReaders
are really, really insane)
I'm on this patch for quite some time, I understand that, so maybe we can
settle on a deadline? Don't like to see the effort vaporate, also merging is
gonna be hell with flex branch alone, don't want to double it :)
> Make it possible to subclass SegmentReader
> ------------------------------------------
>
> Key: LUCENE-2345
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-2345
> Project: Lucene - Java
> Issue Type: Wish
> Components: Index
> Reporter: Tim Smith
> Fix For: 3.1
>
>
> I would like the ability to subclass SegmentReader for numerous reasons:
> * to capture initialization/close events
> * attach custom objects to an instance of a segment reader (caches,
> statistics, so on and so forth)
> * override methods on segment reader as needed
> currently this isn't really possible
> I propose adding a SegmentReaderFactory that would allow creating custom
> subclasses of SegmentReader
> default implementation would be something like:
> {code}
> public class SegmentReaderFactory {
> public SegmentReader get(boolean readOnly) {
> return readOnly ? new ReadOnlySegmentReader() : new SegmentReader();
> }
> public SegmentReader reopen(SegmentReader reader, boolean readOnly) {
> return newSegmentReader(readOnly);
> }
> }
> {code}
> It would then be made possible to pass a SegmentReaderFactory to IndexWriter
> (for pooled readers) as well as to SegmentReader.get() (DirectoryReader.open,
> etc)
> I could prepare a patch if others think this has merit
> Obviously, this API would be "experimental/advanced/will change in future"
