Cservenak, Tamas commented on LUCENE-2476:
------------------------------------------
I tried both IndexWriter#unlock and
Directory#cleanLock(IndexWriter.WRITE_LOCK_NAME) but non of those removed the
entry from LOCK_HELD HashSet. It was unchanged.
The NativeFSLock#release() was returning false in both cases.
So, this is what I meant by "provide some circumvention", since up to now, I
did not figure out any other means to remove the entry from LOCK_HELD. All of
these did _not_ remove it.

> Constructor of IndexWriter let's runtime exceptions pop up, while keeping the
> writeLock obtained.
> The init method in IndexWriter catches IOException only (I got
> NegativeArraySize by reading up a _corrupt_ index), and now, there is no way
> to recover, since the writeLock will be kept obtained. Moreover, I don't have
> IndexWriter instance either, to "grab" the lock somehow, since the init()
> method is called from IndexWriter constructor.
> Either broaden the catch to all exceptions, or at least provide some
> circumvention to clear up. In my case, I'd like to "fallback", just delete
> the corrupted index from disk and recreate it, but it is impossible, since
> the LOCK_HELD NativeFSLockFactory's entry about obtained WriteLock is _never_
> cleaned out and is no (at least apparent) way to clean it out forcibly. I
> can't create new IndexWriter, since it will always fail with
> LockObtainFailedException.
