[jira] Updated: (LUCENE-1516) Integrate IndexReader with IndexWriter

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1516?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Jason Rutherglen updated LUCENE-1516:
-------------------------------------

    Attachment: LUCENE-1516.patch

- Most tests pass. Because SegmentReaders are held by the writer,
files remain open whereas before this patch they did not. This causes
some tests to fail. 
- I'm working a way to remove unreferenced segments from the pool

>
> The current problem is an IndexReader and IndexWriter cannot be open
> at the same time and perform updates as they both require a write
> lock to the index. While methods such as IW.deleteDocuments enables
> deleting from IW, methods such as IR.deleteDocument(int doc) and
> norms updating are not available from IW. This limits the
> capabilities of performing updates to the index dynamically or in
> realtime without closing the IW and opening an IR, deleting or
> updating norms, flushing, then opening the IW again, a process which
> can be detrimental to realtime updates. 
> This patch will expose an IndexWriter.getReader method that returns
> the currently flushed state of the index as a class that implements
> IndexReader. The new IR implementation will differ from existing IR
> implementations such as MultiSegmentReader in that flushing will
> synchronize updates with IW in part by sharing the write lock. All
> methods of IR will be usable including reopen and clone.
