[jira] Commented: (LUCENE-1269) Analysers and Filters should not be final

["Grant Ingersoll (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1269?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12591893#action_12591893 ] 

Grant Ingersoll commented on LUCENE-1269:
-----------------------------------------

Can you submit a patch?  I guess I don't see any reason they need to be final, but I am always paranoid that somebody had to have a reason at the time.

>          Components: Analysis

> I am trying to extend some Lucene Analysers to further improve their behaviour. However, some Analysers and Filters are final classes that I cannot extend (thus resorting to copying the class, which is less than optimal).
> Any reason we would want to inhibit people from extending a class like FrenchAnalyzer?
> Could me make all Analysers and Filters in the contrib-analysis package non-final?
