Adrien Grand commented on LUCENE-4239:
--------------------------------------
Han, perhaps the patch didn't apply well on your computer. I just tried to re-apply it and
I've had no problem with Packed64SingleBlockBulkOperation32. I'll commit shortly on the pfor
branch...
> Provide access to PackedInts' low-level blocks <-> values conversion methods

> In LUCENE-4161 we started to make the {{PackedInts}} API more flexible so that codecs
could use it whenever they need to (un)pack integers. There are two posting formats in progress
(For and PFor, LUCENE-3892) that perform a lot of integer (un)packing but the current API
still has limits :
> - it only works with long[] arrays, whereas these codecs need to manipulate int[] arrays,
> - the packed reader iterators work great for unpacking long sequences of integers, but
they would probably cause a lot of overhead to decode lots of short integer sequences such
as the ones that can be generated by For and PFor.
> I've been looking at the For/PFor branch and it has a {{PackedIntsDecompress}} class
(http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/lucene/dev/branches/pforcodec_3892/lucene/core/src/java/org/apache/lucene/codecs/pfor/PackedIntsDecompress.java)
which is very similar to {{oal.util.packed.BulkOperation}} (package-private), so maybe we
should find a way to expose this class so that the For/PFor branch can directly use it.
