: instead of using : : import static org.apache.solr.util.SolrPluginUtils.*; : : there is an inner class as follows
that was intentional ... i'm not a fan of import static in cases like this (Utility classes with *lots* of static methods). it pollutes the namespace of the current class and makes it hard for people reading the code doing the importing to realize which method calls are static and come from another utility class. When people see U.foo(bar) it should be obvious that's a static method comming from some Utility class U ... we've just "aliased" U to SolrPluginUtils -- and it's easy to see that using any IDE with knowledge of the class hierarchy (or in my case: "grep"). -Hoss
