Michael McCandless commented on LUCENE-3631:
--------------------------------------------

Hmm I meant to "svn rm TestIndexReaderClone.java".

Oh I'll remove that silly sop.

You're right -- we don't need any sync in SegmentCoreReaders now!  It's 
entirely final (also SegmentReader)... I'll remove.

And in my opinion incRef/decRef on IndexReaders is useless, too (or almost 
useless, except segmentreaders). As Shai said before, code like SearcherManager 
should reCount externaly with a separate interface/helperclass (that refcounts 
and on decRef to 0, it calls Closeable.close - so helper can work on any 
Closeable). But we should remove that in separate issue.

We should explore that... it's tricky.

> After LUCENE-3606 is finished, there are some TODOs:
> SegmentReader still contains (package-private) all delete logic including 
> crazy copyOnWrite for validDocs Bits. It would be good, if SegmentReader 
> itsself could be read-only like all other IndexReaders.
> There are two possibilities to do this:
> # the simple one: Subclass SegmentReader and make a RWSegmentReader that is 
> only used by IndexWriter/BufferedDeletes/... DirectoryReader will only use 
> the read-only SegmentReader. This would move all TODOs to a separate class. 
> It's reopen/clone method would always create a RO-SegmentReader (for NRT).
> # Remove all write and commit stuff from SegmentReader completely and move it 
> to IndexWriter's readerPool (it must be in readerPool as deletions need a 
> not-changing view on an index snapshot).
> Unfortunately the code is so complicated and I have no real experience in 
> those internals of IndexWriter so I did not want to do it with LUCENE-3606, I 
> just separated the code in SegmentReader and marked with TODO. Maybe Mike 
> McCandless can help :-)
