Able to annotate @AnalyzerDiscriminator to more than one field. --------------------------------------------------------------- Key: HSEARCH-609 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HSEARCH-609 Project: Hibernate Search Issue Type: Improvement Components: analyzer Affects Versions: 3.2.1 Environment: search 3.2.1 , core-3.5.6 Reporter: Smallufo Huang Today , I found I cannot annotate more than one @AnalyzerDiscriminator in a class. I feel it is very *not* intuitive. And it will make the Discriminator implementation more complicated. Because Discriminator will need to more judge *field* to decide correct analyzer , especially when the two fields are of different types. {code:title=Sample1.java} class Sample1 { @Field @AnalyzerDiscriminator(impl = LanguageDiscriminator.class) private String title; @Field @AnalyzerDiscriminator(impl = AnotherDiscriminator.class) private String content; } {code} {code:title=Sample2.java} class Sample2 { @Field @AnalyzerDiscriminator(impl = AnotherDiscriminator.class) private String title; } {code} See the two classes for example. I cannot add two @AnalyzerDiscriminator in one class , and it throws {color:red}"Multiple AnalyzerDiscriminator defined in the same class hierarchy"{color} Exception. So I have to combine LanguageDiscriminator and AnotherDiscriminator into one and use it in the 1st example. And judge Analyzer by field name : 'title' for language analyzer , and 'content' for another analyzer. but I cannot re-use the *'CombinedDiscriminator'* to the 2nd example , because in 2nd example , the 'title' should apply AnotherDiscriminator , not LanguageDiscriminator in 1st example. So I suggest , a class should be able to apply different Discriminators to different fields. And the Discriminator's methods should be : {code} public String getAnalyzerDefinitionName(Object value, Object entity) ; // remove field {code} It will be more flexible. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/secure/Administrators.... - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
