> For my needs I've updated Lucene so that it uses Java 5 constructs. I kno=
w Java 5 migration had been planned for 2.1 someday in the past, but don't =
know when it is planned now. This patch against the trunk includes :
> - most obvious generics usage (there are tons of usages of sets, ... Thos=
e which are commonly used have been generified)
> - PriorityQueue generification
> - replacement of indexed for loops with for each constructs
> - removal of unnececessary unboxing
> The code is to my opinion much more readable with those features (you act=
ually *know* what is stored in collections reading the code, without the ne=
ed to lookup for field definitions everytime) and it simplifies many algori=
thms.
> Note that this patch also includes an interface for the Query class. This=
 has been done for my company's needs for building custom Query classes whi=
ch add some behaviour to the base Lucene queries. It prevents multiple unnn=
ecessary casts. I know this introduction is not wanted by the team, but it =
really makes our developments easier to maintain. If you don't want to use =
this, replace all /Queriable/ calls with standard /Query/.
