I agree with DIGY. We have discussed this in the past few times. We have to get 2.9.1 out really soon, so we can catch up with 3.0 and do more than just port over logic from Java to C# -- but also take advantage of what C# and .NET has to offer.
BTW, those kind of discussions should be on the dev side vs. user. -- George -----Original Message----- From: Digy [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, November 09, 2009 1:19 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: 2.9 Target Framework I think we should stick to .NET 2.0 till Lucene 3.0 which can be a good place to switch to .NET 3.5 (so will Lucene.Java do also). There are also a lot of places where smarter codes can be used ( replacing "GetEnumerator+while" with "foreach", implementing a .NET like "Set" instead of using Hashtable etc.) But it can be a problem in porting unless we catch up with Lucene.Java.

What is the target framework for Lucene.Net 2.9? I'm assuming 2.0 but would like to ensure this is defined. There are a few cases in some of the internal implementation where use of LINQ would be handy, such as in collection transformations to arrays. Overall, it's not a big deal to target 2.0 however some of the implementation will be a bit more elegant and precise if we target 3.5.
