Michael McCandless updated LUCENE-1201: --------------------------------------- Attachment: LUCENE-1201.patch Attached patch. I plan to commit in a day or two. I also deprecated the original interface IndexCommitPoint, and switched to abstract base class IndexCommit instead, and added equals() method to IndexCommit. I also added "warning this API is still experimental" to the javadocs too. > Add getIndexCommit method to IndexReader > ---------------------------------------- > > Key: LUCENE-1201 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1201 > Project: Lucene - Java > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: Index > Affects Versions: 2.1, 2.2, 2.3 > Reporter: Michael McCandless > Assignee: Michael McCandless > Fix For: 2.4 > > Attachments: LUCENE-1201.patch > > > Spinoff from this thread: > http://markmail.org/message/bojgqfgyxkkv4fyb > I think it makes sense ask an IndexReader for the commit point it has > open. This enables the use case described in the above thread, which > is to create a deletion policy that is able to query all open readers > for what commit points they are using, and prevent deletion of them. -- 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]
