--------------------------------------

Thanks michael, the fix you provided seems to be working fine for me, after 
using close(false) index file is not getting deleted and search is also working 
fine though optimization is not happening but still its fine as far as search 
is working. I have attached a sample application which replicates the actual 
application, please have a look at that and let me know if anything else can be 
fine tuned.

> Is this an issue with lucene?, if yes it is fixed in which version?
