: But as long as there is no real a memory leak, what is the point of : adding this close functionality?
I think the concern is not so much that Lucene core as is has any leaks -- but that subclasses of core implimentations have no mechanism for safely managing resources. Custom Directory implimenations that rely on close() or custom Scorers that try to do anything complex involving external resources would have leaks of whatever resource they need to explicitly manage. -Hoss --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
