[jira] Issue Comment Edited: (LUCENE-1260) Norm codec strategy in Similarity

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1260?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12722374#action_12722374 ]

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

Removed 'static' keyword to enable a pluggable behavior for encoding/decoding norms. Our business-case for this is to fix scoring when using NGrams. If a word is split into three parts, the norm for these parts would then become ~0.3125 (don't remember exactly) in the current implementation. A search for the exact same word would then generate a score of less than 1.0. With a pluggable norm-calculation, we could use a norm-table with values 0-100 and get a better scoring.

Minor changes in 11 core-classes and some tests. Also minor changes in analyzers, instantiated, memory and miscellaneous.

> The static span and resolution of the 8 bit norms codec might not fit with all applications. 
> My use case requires that 100f-250f is discretized in 60 bags instead of the default.. 10?
