[jira] Commented: (LUCENE-1707) Don't use ensureOpen() excessively in IndexReader and IndexWriter

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1707?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12723782#action_12723782 ] 

Michael McCandless commented on LUCENE-1707:
--------------------------------------------

I'd actually rather not remove the ensureOpen calls (I think it's
better when the user sees an AlreadyClosedException than an NPE from
somewhere deeper in IndexReader), but instead change it to a best
effort impl (ie don't use volatile).

I think for nearly all the methods where we have ensureOpen today, the
cost (once we stop checking volatile) is tiny (this coming from
someone who is normally a freak about performance!).

> A spin off from here: http://www.nabble.com/Excessive-use-of-ensureOpen()-td24127806.html.
> We should stop calling this method when it's not necessary for any internal Lucene code. Currently, this code seems to hurt properly written apps, unnecessarily.
> Will post a patch soon
