Simplify configuration API of contrib Query Parser
--------------------------------------------------
Key: LUCENE-2979
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-2979
Project: Lucene - Java
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: contrib/*
Affects Versions: 3.0, 2.9
Reporter: Adriano Crestani
Fix For: 3.1, 4.0
The current configuration API is very complicated and inherit the concept used
by Attribute API to store token information in token streams. However, the
requirements for both (QP config and token stream) are not the same, so they
shouldn't be using the same thing.
I propose to simplify QP config and make it less scary for people intending to
use contrib QP. The task is not difficult, it will just require a lot of code
change and figure out the best way to do it. That's why it's a good candidate
for a GSoC project.
I would like to hear good proposals about how to make the API more friendly and
less scaring :)
