---------------------------------------

    Attachment: LUCENE-2308.branchdiffs

This merge is going to be "challenging" so I'm going to attach several patches as I iterate towards making a real patch against current trunk.

This first patch is the diff vs the trunk as of when I cut the branch (rev 1134018), ie it contains all changes committed to the branch.  I generated this w/ dev-tools/scripts/diffSources.py, ie it should be applyable if you checkout that base rev.

Next up I'll tweak the patch to account for moved files since we branched.

> This came up from dicussions on IRC.  I'm summarizing here...
> Today when you make a Field to add to a document you can set things
> index or not, stored or not, analyzed or not, details like omitTfAP,
> omitNorms, index term vectors (separately controlling
> offsets/positions), etc.
> I think we should factor these out into a new class (FieldType?).
> Then you could re-use this FieldType instance across multiple fields.
> The Field instance would still hold the actual value.
> We could then do per-field analyzers by adding a setAnalyzer on the
> FieldType, instead of the separate PerFieldAnalzyerWrapper (likewise
> for per-field codecs (with flex), where we now have
> PerFieldCodecWrapper).
> This would NOT be a schema!  It's just refactoring what we already
> specify today.  EG it's not serialized into the index.
> This has been discussed before, and I know Michael Busch opened a more
> ambitious (I think?) issue.  I think this is a good first baby step.  We could
> consider a hierarchy of FIeldType (NumericFieldType, etc.) but maybe hold
> off on that for starters...
