Hello Mike, Now I have working code !!-) For instant deletion I just changed my code so, that in most cases (except one) each index writer/reader is newly created in the begin of method(s) and .close(), =null in the end. Maybe =null is not really necessary, but I'll feel more comfortable with it. That's all ! Hope you'll success after review your code ! For simplicity I've created 4 methods:
private IndexWriter raiseIWriter( boolean createNew ) throws IOException { return new IndexWriter( whereIndex, indAna, createNew ); } private void dropIWriter( IndexWriter iw ) throws IOException { iw.close(); iw = null; } and similar for IndexReader, and than mostly NO used any reader/writer except what I get with this methods: // example of deleter: private void idxDeleteDoc( String fldName, String fldVal ) throws IOException { infoln( "idx_del [" + fldName + ", " + fldVal + "]" ); IndexReader ir = raiseIReader(); ir.delete( new Term( fldName, fldVal ) ); dropIReader( ir ); } Maybe it's important that no any spare reader/writer opened at the time of document deletion with IndexReader. Maybe similar sentence is present in FAQ :-) I dunno :-) Bye ! MB> Thanks for your response.
