             Summary: Clean up package name conflicts between modules (split packages)
                 Key: LUCENE-9499
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-9499
             Project: Lucene - Core
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: master (9.0)
            Reporter: Tomoko Uchida
            Assignee: Tomoko Uchida


We have lots of package name conflicts (shared package names) between modules in the source tree. It is not only annoying for devs/users but also indeed bad practice since Java 9 (according to my understanding), and we already have some problems with Javadocs due to these splitted packages as some of us would know. Also split packages make migrating to the Java 9 module system impossible.

This is the placeholder to fix all package name conflicts in Lucene.

See the dev list thread for moe background. 
 [https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/r6496963e89a5e0615e53206429b6843cc5d3e923a2045cc7b7a1eb03%40%3Cdev.lucene.apache.org%3E]

Modules that need be fixed / cleaned up:
 - analyzers-common (LUCENE-9317)
 - analyzers-icu
 - backward-codecs (LUCENE-9318)
 - sandbox (LUCENE-9319)
 - misc
 - (test-framework: this can be excluded for the moment)

Also lucene-core will be heavily affected (some classes needed to be moved into core, or some classes' and methods' in {{core}} visibility have to be relaxed).
