I am a little fuzzy on the thread-safeness of Lucene, or maybe just java. From what I understand, and correct me if I'm wrong, Lucene takes care of concurrency issues and it is ok to run a query while writing to an index.
My question is, does this still hold true if the reader and writer are being executed as separate programs? I have a cron job that will update the index periodically. I also have a search application on a web form. Is this going to cause trouble if someone runs a query while the indexer is updating?
