             Summary: Modify FixedBitSet copy constructor to take numBits to allow grow/shrink the new bitset
                 Key: LUCENE-5277
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-5277
             Project: Lucene - Core
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: core/index
            Reporter: Shai Erera
            Assignee: Shai Erera


FixedBitSet copy constructor is redundant the way it is now -- one can call FBS.clone() to achieve that (and indeed, no code in Lucene calls this ctor). I think it will be useful to add a numBits parameter to that method to allow growing/shrinking the new bitset, while copying all relevant bits from the passed one.
