Michael McCandless commented on LUCENE-743: ------------------------------------------- A couple other questions/points: * Just to verify: if you have a DirectoryIndexReader that is holding the write lock (because it has made changes to deletes/norms) then calling reopen on this reader should always return 'this', right? Because it has the write lock, it must be (better be!) current. This might be a good place to add an assert: if you are not current, assert that you don't have the write lock, and if you have the write lock, assert that you are current. * I think you should add "ensureOpen()" at the top of MultiReader.reopen(...)? * If an Exception is hit during reopen, what is the resulting state of your original reader? I think, ideally, it is unaffected by the attempt to re-open? EG if you're on the hairy edge of file descriptor limits, and the attempt to re-open failed because you hit the limit, ideally your original reader is unaffected (even if you specified closeOldReader=true). > IndexReader.reopen() > -------------------- > > Key: LUCENE-743 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-743 > Project: Lucene - Java > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Index > Reporter: Otis Gospodnetic > Assignee: Michael Busch > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 2.3 > > Attachments: IndexReaderUtils.java, lucene-743-take2.patch, > lucene-743.patch, lucene-743.patch, lucene-743.patch, MyMultiReader.java, > MySegmentReader.java > > > This is Robert Engels' implementation of IndexReader.reopen() functionality, > as a set of 3 new classes (this was easier for him to implement, but should > probably be folded into the core, if this looks good). -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
