lucene hanging when calling writer.deleteDocuments

["Fielder, Todd Patrick" <tp...@sandia.gov>]

Hello,

I have a call to writer.deleteDocuments(term); that hangs if the document is not in the index.  It works fine if the document is in the index.

Is this the expected behavior?  If so, is there a better method to call if I don't know if the term is in the index?

Thanks

-Todd

bq: if the document is not in the index.  It works fine if the
document is in the index.

A bit confused here, do you mean the _term_ is in the index or the
document that contained the term has already been deleted?

Under either circumstance, we should't hang, it would be a great help
if you could write a test case that illustrates this behavior.

Best,
Erick
