Adrian Nistor updated ISPN-6178:
--------------------------------
Description:
Queryable classes are currently auto-detected on the fly by the QueryInterceptor on each
write operation. The set of discovered classes is replicated by means of ClusterRegistry.
This approach creates a lot of technical complexity and the implementation has a number of
flaws; some have been fixed after several iterations but the solution is still brittle and
can lead to locking issues. It also forces Hibernate Search to reconfigure the factory
which is rather messy. In stead of continuing to patch and 'improve' this we
should consider pre-declaring the indexable classes in the cache configuration (indexing
configuration actually).
Given the impact of this change to existing codebase I would propose an approach that
allows an easy transition:
1. Introduction of a new config in indexing configuration to be able to specify the
classes.
2. If cache is indexed but no indexable classes were defined fallback to on-demand
auto-detection as it worked in 8.1.
3. If cache is indexed and classes were specified use them and do not perform on-demand
auto-detection anymore.
This is how it should work in 8.2. Auto-detection should also be documented as deprecated
in 8.2 and should be removed completely in 9.0. In 9.0 marking a cache as indexed but not
specifying which exact classes should result in an error at config time validation.
