Shai Erera commented on LUCENE-4246:
------------------------------------
bq. Shai: look at the JDBC connection API.
I'm arguing about changing current behavior with no apparent gains. And I'm not
sure that I want to compare IW API to JDBC ... to me they are not the same
things, but this may be just semantics.
bq. I dont know what you are talking about saying OutputStream is transactional
I didn't say OS is transactional, but rather that it's not the point. The point
is changing API that works one way for years, which users rely on its behavior
for years, their apps will be broken in who knows how many ways etc etc ...
again, for no apparent gains.
This is what I object to -- changing semantics of API which people are happy
with and used to it. If it's so important to you, you can make a new API
closeNoCommit(). Today it's rollback(), but if that ever changes, we have an
explicit API.
And I don't understand if you argue for the sake arguing, or you really believe
there is anyone out there intending to close IW without committing the changes?
Do *you* intend to do it?
