two IndexSearchers on one dir?

[Paul Libbrecht <pa...@hoplahup.net>]

Hello list,

is it a good or bad thing to open to index-searchers on FSDirectories of the same path?

(namely, one short-lived, one long-lived).

thanks in advance

paul

It's not a problem, but it's best to share the underlying reader. You
could open your short-lived searcher by getting a reader
via getIndexReader() on your long-lived searcher....

What's the underlying use-case you're trying to make happen?

Best
