[jira] [Comment Edited] (LUCENE-5850) Constants#LUCENE_MAIN_VERSION can have broken values

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-5850?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14077703#comment-14077703 ]

There is nothing complicated anymore. As I said, I can fix the test. We already have splitted the common-build.xml version numbers in the base version and the appendix. The testcase just has to check if the base version is identical to the LUCENE_MAIN_VERSION constant. We are on the safe side then. The user can change the appendix as he likes (jenkins does this at the moment). The problem is just our test configuraton, I will provide a patch once I am back at home, just give me one or 2 days :-) It is all supported, just the testcase is bullshit - and I will fix this.

> Constants#LUCENE_MAIN_VERSION is set to the Lucene Main version and should not contain minor versions. Well this is at least what I thought and to my knowledge what the comments say too. Yet in for instance 4.3.1 and 4.5.1 we broke this such that the version from SegmentsInfo can not be parsed with Version#parseLeniently. IMO we should really add an assertion that this constant doesn't throw an error and / or make the smoketester catch this. to me this is actually a index BWC break. Note that 4.8.1 doesn't have this problem...
