---------------------------------------
Hi, I would like to work on this issue.
> Closing the DirTaxonomyReader while another thread access the cache can throw
> NPE
> ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: LUCENE-10077
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-10077
> Project: Lucene - Core
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: modules/facet
> Affects Versions: main (9.0)
> Reporter: Gautam Worah
> Priority: Minor
>
> When we close a {{DirectoryTaxonomyReader}} in {{doClose}}, we set the
> {{categoryCache}} to null. But if a thread is next after this {{doClose}}
> call, it will still try to acquire a lock and {{synchronize}} on it. This
> will result in an NPE.
> This works well today, because we operate on the assumption that the user
> will always call {{doClose}} after all threads have completed.
> One suggestion by [~mikemccand] in this
> [PR|https://github.com/apache/lucene/pull/179#discussion_r697880516] was to
> make categoryCache final and throw an AlreadyClosedException.
