> If I understand the intention correctly, this PR want to let production environment to still use the `DEFAULT_VERSION`, but check in the classes of the `CURRENT_VERSION` and the tests for them. If that is the case, can we just add a separate constructor with the version info so that the tests can use that? The default constructor will create the writer with `DEFAULT_VERSION`. We don't really need to make it configurable because in production environment you never want to use `CURRENT_VERSION` before the version is verified. In order to move to the `CURRENT_VERSION`, you can simply change the default constructor to the `CURRENT_VERSION` - We want to use CURRENT_VERSION in production environment (use cases for text index are going to need the 8-byte chunk offset because of huge raw data). - CURRENT_VERSION is verified in production. We already have realtime segments that got completed and written with CURRENT_VERSION as of the currently deployed release in production. Has also been verified on our internal perf cluster. - However, for pbnj roll-out we need the flexibility temporarily to rollback the release if something **orthogonal to this** goes wrong. So while pbnj is being rolled out internally using implicit DEFAULT_VERSION, tables with text index are going to specifically enable this config since it has already been verified. Coming to changing the dotted notation, I haven't yet done the migration from IndexingConfig to FieldConfig. It is only being used for text. Going to migrate soon. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
