[jira] [Commented] (LUCENE-8129) Support for defining a Unicode set filter when using ICUFoldingFilter

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-8129?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16323919#comment-16323919 ] 

Robert Muir commented on LUCENE-8129:
-------------------------------------

Thanks for the patch.

I don't like the change to the way the rules are loaded at all. Its now duplicated across the factory and the filter It also changes the constructor to load it from a file on every invocation whereas before it happened only once, this is too slow for any real use.

I think it is enough to just remove the keyword 'private' on the existing static instance, so that its package-private instead. Then the factory is able to access it, wrap it with a filter, and pass it to Normalizer2Filter.

> While ICUNormalizer2FilterFactory supports a filter attribute to define a Unicode set filter, ICUFoldingFilterFactory does not support it. A filter allows one to e.g. exclude a set of characters from being folded. E.g. for Finnish and Swedish the filter could be defined like this:
>       <filter class="solr.ICUFoldingFilterFactory" filter="[^åäöÅÄÖ]"/>
> Note: An additional MappingCharFilterFactory or solr.LowerCaseFilterFactory would be needed for lowercasing the characters excluded from folding. This is similar to what ElasticSearch provides (see https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/plugins/current/analysis-icu-folding.html).
> I'll add a patch that does this similar to ICUNormalizer2FilterFactory. Applies at least to master and branch_7x.
