Interruptible segment merges
----------------------------
Key: LUCENE-887
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-887
Project: Lucene - Java
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: Index
Reporter: Michael Busch
Priority: Minor
Fix For: 2.2
Adds the ability to IndexWriter to interrupt an ongoing merge. This might be
necessary when Lucene is e. g. running as a service and has to stop indexing
within a certain period of time due to a shutdown request.
A solution would be to add a new method shutdown() to IndexWriter which
satisfies the following two requirements:
- if a merge is happening, abort it
- flush the buffered docs but do not trigger a merge
