What stops you from using the reader before you add the document to the index?

I don't seem to be able to find the answer to my question from the archive. I hope to get some help with my problem. I have : Document doc = new Document(); doc.add( Field.Text( "contents", rdr ); myIndexWriter.addDocument( doc ); After this point, it appears that rdr is closed. What happens is that I want to subsequently use the rdr again by positioning back to the beginning of the file, and since I opened the rdr (input stream), I wasn't expect addDocument to close it. I am wondering if there is a reason that rdr should be closed after addDocument, and if there is a way to leave it open ? Thank you. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
