Hello anyone, We recently ran into something people might not be fully aware of. Specifically, because codec jars require META-INF/services files in order to be discovered, and each codec has the same files, it's not a straightforward operation to glom all the Lucene jars of interest into one uber-jar, because some of this info is lost. Putting all the dependencies together in one jar is one of the few things Maven is really good at, so this is a shame. ;-)
This can be worked around by essentially creating a new org.apache.lucene.codecs.PostingFormat file, but that's not an easy operation with the build tools people use. Any suggestions? Karl
