Daniel John Debrunner commented on LUCENE-818:
----------------------------------------------
>> Yes, but it's not just thread scheduling, it's also lack of memory
>> barriers. The 2nd thread may *never* see the close(), depending on
>> the exact architecture of machine and the JVM.
>Yikes. Is this the Java memory model issue? Ie, there is no hard
>guarantee on when a "write" from one thread will be visible to other
>threads, unless you use "volatile"?
Doesn't crossing a synchronization barrier ensure that all threads will seem
the same value of a field?
> IndexWriter should detect when it's used after being closed

> If you call addDocument on IndexWriter after it's closed you'll hit a
> hard-to-explain NullPointerException (because the RAMDirectory was
> closed). Before 2.1, apparently you won't hit any exception and the
> IndexWrite will keep running but will have released it's write lock (I
> think).
> I plan to fix IndexWriter methods to throw an IllegalStateException if
> it has been closed.
