[jira] Commented: (LUCENENET-112) orphan IndexWriter locks

["Grimace of Despair (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENENET-112?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12647583#action_12647583 ] 

Grimace of Despair commented on LUCENENET-112:
----------------------------------------------

I'm really ignorant when it comes to Lucene source code, but I saw the release notes of Lucene 2.4.0 containing something very important to me:

"A machine or OS crash, or power loss, while IndexWriter is writing to an index will no longer corrupt the index."

Then I dug into jira and found this one and thought they might relate. I mean: maybe those changes will invalidate this issue?

> If an application crashes while an IndexWriter is open, it leaves the lock file(writer.lock) behind. Re-running the application results in an "Lock obtain timeout" exception.
