[jira] [Commented] (LUCENE-2621) Extend Codec to handle also stored fields and term vectors

["Michael McCandless (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-2621?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13114022#comment-13114022 ] 

Michael McCandless commented on LUCENE-2621:
--------------------------------------------

Awesome!

I think, like the postings, we can add a .merge() method, and the impl for that would do bulk-merge when it can?

On the restructuring, maybe we can go back to a PerFieldCodecWrapper, which is itself a Codec?  This would simplify CodecProvider back to just being a name -> Codec instance provider?  We would still use SegmentCodecs/FieldInfo(s) to compute/record the codecID, though, in theory this could become "private" to PFCW once it's a Codec again.

> Currently Codec API handles only writing/reading of term-related data, while stored fields data and term frequency vector data writing/reading is handled elsewhere.
> I propose to extend the Codec API to handle this data as well.
