[jira] Commented: (LUCENE-1314) IndexReader.reopen(boolean force)

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1314?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12607609#action_12607609 ] 

Jason Rutherglen commented on LUCENE-1314:
------------------------------------------

A package protected field "boolean openNewFieldsReader = true;" (defaults to true to mimic previous behavior) should be added to SegmentReader to allow subclasses to determine if they want a new fieldsReader opened everytime a reopen occurs.  The SegmentReader.doClose would need to not close fieldsReader if the openNewFieldsReader was set to false.

The SegmentReader.reopenSegment method directly instantiates a SegmentReader rather than using IMPL like SegmentReader.get(Directory dir, SegmentInfo si, SegmentInfos sis, boolean closeDir, boolean ownDir, int readBufferSize, boolean  doOpenStores) does.

In my SegmentReader subclass I am passing a lock and passing a reference to fieldsReader for global locking and a single fieldsReader across all instances.  Otherwise there are too many instances of fieldsReader and file descriptors will be used up.

> Based on discussion http://www.nabble.com/IndexReader.reopen-issue-td18070256.html.  The problem is reopen returns the same reader if there are no changes, so if docs are deleted from the new reader, they are also reflected in the previous reader which is not always desired behavior.
