Bad File Descriptor Exception

[Jayakumar P <Ja...@gedc.tcs.co.in>]

Hi all,
I'm a new user to Lucene,

I'm getting "Bad File Descriptor" Exception for the following piece of code

Hits hits = searcher.search(query); //returns hits properly
for (int i =0; i< hits.length();i++)
{
    Document doc = hits.doc(i); // throws exception "Bad Fle Descriptor"
}

can any one tell me why this happens

Regards

Jayakumar

Are you closing the searcher between the search and the loop?

Hits objects don't contain all the results. They have about 100, and 
they a reference to the searcher so that they can get more results if 
they have to. If you close the searcher, then you will hit this type 
of behavior.
