> Greetings. Firstly a big thank you for everyones efforts with Lucene and Lucene.Net. Your efforts are much appreciated.
> Background:
> I have created a server application which allows searching across many companies. In order to achieve this I have utilized Lucene.Net for indexing and searching and NCache from Alachisoft for caching the information server-side. As the Lucene index takes a fair amount of time to create - I am also caching the RAMDirectory. The caching requires all objects to be serialized before storage.
> The issue:
> After retrieving the RAMDirectory from cache (after de-serializing) I attempted to create a new IndexWriter object to allow adding more items to the index:
>             oDirectory = CacheConfig.DeCacheSupplierIndex("SupplierIndex" & Supplier.BuyerNo)
>             analyzer = New StandardAnalyzer()
>             oIndexWriter = New IndexWriter(oDirectory, analyzer, False)
> The attempt to create the IndexWriter resulted in a NullReference exception at:
>            at Lucene.Net.Store.Directory.MakeLock(String name)
>            at Lucene.Net.Index.IndexWriter.Init(Directory d, Analyzer a, Boolean create, Boolean closeDir)
>            at Lucene.Net.Index.IndexWriter..ctor(Directory d, Analyzer a)
>    
> After debugging the Lucene source I discovered the exception was caused by the lockFactory definition in the Directory class (Directory.cs line 49) having a [NonSerialized] attribute. This caused the lockFactory to be null after serialization.
> Fix:
> Removed the [NonSerialized] attribute. 
> Added a [Serializable] attribute to SingleInstanceLockFactory (SingleInstanceLockFactory.cs line 35)
> Added a [Serializable] attribute to LockFactory (LockFactory.cs line 28)
> This allowed me to proceed. I have not thoroughly tested the changes. I can provide the source code if required.
> As we will very likely upgrade to future versions of Lucene - I would like to have any fix incorporated into the Lucene source repository. Let me know what I should do.
