> DirectoryReader is final and has only static factory methods. It is not
> possible to subclass it in any way.
> The problem is mainly Solr, as Solr accesses directory(), IndexCommits,...
> and therefore cannot work on abstract IndexReader anymore. This should be
> changed, by e.g. handling reopening in the IRFactory, also versions,
> commits,... Currently its not possible to implement any other IRFactory that
> returns something else.
> On the other hand, it should be possible to "wrap" a DirectoryReader /
> CompositeReader to handle filtering of collection based information
> (subreaders, reopening hooks,...). This can be done by making DirectoryReader
> abstract and let DirectoryReader.open return a internal hidden class
> "StandardDirectoryReader". This is similar to the relatinship between
> IndexReader and hidden DirectoryReader in the past.
> DirectoryReader will have final implementations of most methods like getting
> document stored fields, global docFreq and other statistics, but allows
> hooking into doOpenIfChanged. Also it should not be limited to SegmentReaders
> as childs - any AtomicReader is fine. This allows users to create e.g. a
> Directory-based ParallelReader (see LUCENE-3736) that supports reopen and
> (partially commits).
