Re: [Jflex-devel] 1.7 release?

[Steve R. <sa...@gm...>]

Hi Gerwin,

Sorry I didn’t respond sooner on this.

Your list looks good. 

There’s also:

7) Remove the option to generate an InputStream-param ctor (previously deprecated and slated for removal in 1.7).

I have two new features I’d also like to include:

8) The ability to disable scanner buffer growth (the Lucene project hacks generated scanners to do this - see <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-5897> and <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-5400> for background.)

9) Reduce RAM usage of the char->char class map by using byte[] rather than char[] when the number of classes is less than 257 - see <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-6913>.  This could be an automatic optimization, no option required.

In addition to the latter two, I’ll take a look at 3, 4, 6, and 7.

Steve
