Upgrade Lucene to latest version (4.0) from 2.4.0
We have an existing application which uses Lucene 2.4.0 version. We are
thinking of upgrading it to alatest version (4.0). I am not sure the process
involved in upgrading to latest version. Is it just copying of the jars? If
yes, what are all the jars that we need to copy over. Will it be backward
compatible? Any additional measures we need to take care of?
With version 2.4.0, we have the following jars:
lucene-core-2.4.0.jar
lucene-analyzers-2.4.0.jar
With 4.0:
lucene-analyzers-common-4.0.0.jar
lucene-analyzers-icu-4.0.0.jar
lucene-core-4.0.0.jar
Any advise on this is much appreciated?
Thanks,
Sai.

I am in the process of upgrading LuSql from 2.x to 4.x and I am first
going to 3.6 as the jump to 4.x was too big.
I would suggest this to you. I think it is less work.
Of course I am also able to offer LuSql to 3.6 users, so this is
slightly different from your case.

I was just going through compiling our sources against 4.0 and it seems there
are quite some API changes. Any major functionality changes from 2.4 - 4.0?
with respect to indexing/searching.
Thanks,

Thanks for all the responses.
Apart from the API changes, is there any major functionality change from
2.4.0 -> 4.x version. I know we need to modify the API to the latest version
but just curious if we need to be aware of any functional changes so as to
do more thorough testing?
Thanks,
Sai.

Of course you're free to do as you like - who will stop you? :)
The problem is the lack of a single place to look for detailed guidance on handling a long-distance upgrade like that.
But it's difficult to generalize here: the possible range in the level of difficulty involved is vast, depending on the amount of code involved, what parts of the API are being used, etc.

Are there any best practices that we can follow? We want to get to the latest
version and am thinking if we can directly go from 2.4.0 to 4.x (as supposed
to 2.x - 3.x and 3.x - 4.x)? so that it will not only save time but also
testing cycle at each migration hop.
Are there any limitations in directly upgrading from 2.x - 4.x? Is this
allowed?

as mentioned before -- I'm not an expert on Lucene (far from it) -- but
it seems to me like each migration version will take almost equal amount
of work so if I were you I'd rethink this plan and consider migration to 4.0

I don't think there is a migration guide from 2.X to 3.X, other than the specific information in the release notes.
If you start reading CHANGES.txt at version 3.0.0, and then each later release's notes after that, especially the sections "Changes in backwards compatibility policy", e.g. for 3.0.0: <http://lucene.apache.org/core/4_0_0/changes/Changes.html#3.0.0.changes_in_backwards_compatibility_policy>, and "API Changes", you'll get a good picture of the changes you need to make to your code.

Sai,
For the transition from 2.X to 3.X, I recommend compiling your code against the latest 2.9.X version (2.9.4), looking at the deprecation messages, and making changes until these are all addressed and compilation no longer produces deprecation messages. Once that's done, your code should compile against 3.0.X.
Unlike the 2.X->3.X transition, there was no "bridge" version that simplifies the upgrade path from 3.X->4.0. However, MIGRATE.txt contains a detailed list of upgrade notes from 3.X to 4.0. See below for an HTML version of this file, called the "Migration Guide".
Check out the 4.0 "Changes" and "Migration Guide" (under "Reference Documents"):
<http://lucene.apache.org/core/4_0_0/index.html>
(note that the 4.0 Changes page contains release notes for *all* previous versions.)

Posted by Paul Hill <pa...@metajure.com>.
My guess is that upgrading to 3.6 to cover the _mostly_ upward compatible changes to that point (Fieldable vs. Field) might make a worthwhile intermediate step.
Then test that to make sure it is working using whatever have to test. Then work out the "real" changes to 4.0.
That is only a thought, because I haven't upgraded to 4.0 yet.

I can tell you though that many signatures have changed as well as package

There were many API changes even between 3.6 and 4.0

Is the API not backward compatible? I mean to say whatever the API calls we

4.x version?

the API has changed much over time so I suspect that it will take more

We recently went through the same process. We upgraded our indexing service
from 1.9.1 to 3.6.1. Unfortunately, the process is not as easy as you
thought. Besides replacing the jar files. You also need to change your code
to adopt to the new API. There are many changes, the most import parts are
in IndexWriter, IndexReader, and IndexSearcher classes.

RE: Upgrade Lucene to latest version (4.0) from 2.4.0
Posted by Uwe Schindler <uw...@thetaphi.de>.
Hi,
why do you try to configure the IndexWriter with outdated merge policies and lots of custom settings for buffering? I would start without any such settings and use IndexWriter with plain default settings. If I hit issues, then it may be useful to change merging and buffering settings. It looks like you prevented IndexWriter from merging at all. This of course would make queries slow, because you have way too many index segments (CFS files).
If you upgrade from very old Lucene versions, it is wise to remove any customizations and start with plain default settings.
