[jira] [Resolved] (LUCENE-6578) Geo3d: arcDistanceToShape() method may be useful

David Smiley resolved LUCENE-6578.
----------------------------------
       Resolution: Fixed
         Assignee: David Smiley
    Fix Version/s: 5.3

FYI during the 5x backport I had to add the isWithin(Vector) implementation to a couple of the classes which had depended on the Java 8 default method.  No big deal.

Thanks for this feature Karl!

> I've got an application that seems like it may need the ability to compute a new kind of arc distance, from a GeoPoint to the nearest edge/point of a GeoShape.  Adding this method to the interface, and corresponding implementations, would increase the utility of the package for ranking purposes.
