Mindaugas Žakšauskas commented on LUCENE-1203:
----------------------------------------------
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought the ??reopen()?? returns new instance of
the refreshed reader (in a case if the index was modified), but the current
instance remains unchanged. If this is true, how would I set the refreshed
instance of ??IndexReader?? to existing ??IndexSearcher???
Would be nice if you could confirm this is actually the case (and possibly add
a small bit of clarification to the IndexReader Javadoc if my assumptions were
wrong).
Thanks a lot!
> [PATCH] Allow setting IndexReader to IndexSearcher
> --------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: LUCENE-1203
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1203
> Project: Lucene - Java
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Search
> Affects Versions: 2.3.1
> Environment: Linux/2.6
> Reporter: Mindaugas Žakšauskas
> Attachments: IndexReaderSetter4IndexSearcher.patch
>
>
> As I've received no counter-arguments for my Lucene Java-User mailing list
> (see
> http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/lucene-java-user/200803.mbox/[EMAIL
> PROTECTED]), I would like to propose adding a setter to set new instance of
> IndexReader to IndexSearcher.
> Why is this needed?
> The FAQ
> (http://wiki.apache.org/lucene-java/LuceneFAQ#head-48921635adf2c968f7936dc07d51dfb40d638b82)
> says:
> bq. ??"Make sure you only open one IndexSearcher, and share it among all of
> the threads that are doing searches -- this is safe, and it will minimize the
> number of files that are open concurently."??
> So does the JavaDoc
> (http://lucene.apache.org/java/2_3_1/api/core/org/apache/lucene/search/IndexSearcher.html).
> In my application, I don't want to expose anything about IndexReader; all
> they need to know is Searcher - see my post to the mailing list how would I
> do this. However, if the index is updated, reopened reader cannot be set back
> to IndexSearcher, a new instance of IndexSearcher needs to be created (*which
> contradicts FAQ and Javadoc*).
> At the moment, the only way to go around this is to create a surrogate
> subclass of IndexSearcher and set new instance of IndexReader. A simple
> setter would just do the job.
