Michael McCandless commented on LUCENE-6508:
--------------------------------------------
I love the "changed by an external force" exception!
Nice javadocs catch about now anciently wrong "IndexReader holding a write
lock"!
I wonder if we even need to pass a lock name anymore? Maybe it can
just be Directory.obtainWriteLock()?
I love how you implemented the lock timeout (wrapping with a sleeper,
with awesome "This is not a good idea." javadocs) but I really think
we should just remove the timeout: I don't see a valid use case
... but we can do this separately.
The new BaseLockFactoryTestCase refactoring is awesome.
I also love the LockValidatingDirectoryWrapper approach; hopefully the
additional IO ops per desctructive op is not too costly on
indexing/NRT reopen latency.

> See LUCENE-6507 for some background. In general it would be great if you can
> just acquire an immutable lock (or you get a failure) and then you close that
> to release it.
> Today the API might be too much for what is needed by IW.
