[jira] Issue Comment Edited: (LUCENE-1636) TokenFilters with a null value in the constructor fail

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1636?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12711920#action_12711920 ]

Mike:
Would this affect backwards compatibility? If we make it final and nobody changes the stream, everything is ok. Is this also the case, when using lucene.jar as a dropin-replacement without recompilation? Will changing a final variable from code, compiled before finalization, be detected by the JVM? Is the compiled code with final still binary compatible to code compiled againt non-final members?
I think, we should try this out before committing!

>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 2.9
>            Reporter: Wouter Heijke
>            Assignee: Michael McCandless

> While migrating from 2.4.x to 2.9-dev I found a lot of failing unittests.
> One problem is with TokenFilters that do a super(null) in the constructor.
> I fixed it by changing the constructor to super(new EmptyTokenStream())
> This will cause problems and frustration to others while migrating to 2.9.
