     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-2259?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Robert Muir updated SOLR-2259:
------------------------------

    Attachment: SOLR-2259part4.patch

Here is the patch for the last part, part 4.

I added a warnDeprecated() helper method to the base class,
and added messages for all deprecated classes in trunk.

> We added Version for backwards compatibility support in Lucene.
> We use this to fire deprecated code to emulate old version to ensure index backwards compat.
> Related: we deprecate old analysis components and eventually remove them.
> To hook into Solr, at first it defaulted to Version 2.4 emulation everywhere, with the example having the latest.
> if you don't specify a version in your solrconfig, it defaults to 2.4 though.
> However, as of LUCENE-2781 2.4 is removed: but users with old configs that don't specify a version should not be silently "upgraded" to the Version 3.0 emulation... this is bad.
> Additionally, when users are using deprecated emulation or using deprecated factories they might not know it, and it might come as a surprise if they upgrade, especially if they arent looking at java apis or java code.
> I propose:
> # in trunk: we make the solrconfig luceneMatchVersion mandatory. 
> This is simple: Uwe already has a method that will error out if its not present, we just use that. 
> # in 3.x: we warn if you don't specify luceneMatchVersion in solrconfig: telling you that its going to be required in 4.0 and that you are defaulting to 2.4 emulation.
> For example: Warning: luceneMatchVersion is not specified in solrconfig.xml. Defaulting to 2.4 emulation. You should at some point declare and reindex to at least 3.0, because 2.4 emulation is deprecated in 3.x and will be removed in 4.0. This parameter will be mandatory in 4.0.
> # in 3.x,trunk: we warn if you are using a deprecated matchVersion constant somewhere in general, even for a specific tokenizer, telling you that you need to at some point reindex with a current version before you can move to the next release.
> For example: Warning: you are using 2.4 emulation, at some point you need to bump and reindex to at least 3.0, because 2.4 emulation is deprecated in 3.x and will be removed in 4.0
> # in 3.x,trunk: we warn if you are using a deprecated TokenStreamFactory so that you know its going to be removed.
> For example: Warning: the ISOLatin1FilterFactory is deprecated and will be removed in the next release. You should migrate to ASCIIFoldingFilterFactory.
