[hibernate-dev] [HSearch] Upgrade to Lucene 3.0

[Hardy Ferentschik]

Right,  I see where you are coming from, but I still think it is  
problematic.
Yes we instantiate the factory somewhere in SolrAnalyzerBuilder, but my  
point is
that because the Solr class is referenced in my entity, it also has to be  
on the classpath.
If the main class loader cannot find  
org.apache.solr.analysis.StandardTokenizerFactory it will
throw an exception.
Your idea would work if the factory parameter would just be the class name  
as string.

Or am I missing something here?
