-----------------------------------
Summary: Create a move method in Directory.
Key: LUCENE-4746
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-4746
Project: Lucene - Core
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Mark Miller
Assignee: Mark Miller
Fix For: 4.2, 5.0
I'd like to make a move method for directory.
We already have a move for Solr in DirectoryFactory, but it seems it belongs at
the directory level really.
The default impl can do a copy and delete, but most implementations will be
able to optimize to a rename.
Besides the move we do for Solr (to move a replicated index into place), it
would also be useful for another feature I'd like to add - the ability to merge
an index with moves rather than copies. In some cases, you don't need/want to
copy all the files and could just rename/move them.
