Change Lucas to make index creation configurable
Hi all,
I am working on a UIMA based Corpus Server over at OpenNLP which is using
Lucas to index its content.
I did run in an issue, with the way the IndexWriter in Lucas is created,
the Lucene
Index Writer constructor takes a flag which indicates that an index
should be created.
If this flag is set, an existing index will also be overwritten.
In my case I need to do both, when a corpus gets created, an index for
it must be created,
and if the server is restarted, the index must be opened and appended,
and not overwritten.
I suggest that we add a parameter for this into the already existing
properties file.
Is it ok, to check in this change before we do the addons release?
Jörn

Hi Jörn,
this is something I planned to do myself but still had no time to work on
it, for it's perfectly ok to make the proposed change before the addons
release.
