Michael McCandless commented on LUCENE-1274:
--------------------------------------------
I plan to rename abort() to rollback() (deprecating abort()), then add
a new method "prepareCommit()" to IndexWriter. If you call this, then
IndexWriter is left in a mode where a commit is pending. You must
follow this up either with a call to rollback(), which reverts all
changes done since you first opened IndexWriter and closes it, or
commit(), which completes the transaction. prepareCommit() requires
that IndexWriter is opened with autoCommit false.
> Expose explicit 2-phase commit in IndexWriter

> Currently when IndexWriter commits, it does so with a two-phase
> commit, internally: first it prepares all the new index files, syncs
> them; then it writes a new segments_N file and syncs that, and only if
> that is successful does it remove any now un-referenced index files.
> However, these two phases are done privately, internal to the commit()
> method.
> But when Lucene is involved in a transaction with external resources
> (eg a database), it's very useful to explicitly break out the prepare
> phase from the commit phase.
