How to refresh the application context - to use the merged index

["K.A.Hussain Ali" <Hu...@photoninfotech.com>]

HI all,

..while crawling using Nutch,i do segment merging and indexing ,but the search doesnt  look into the new mergedsegment unless i restart the server..

Is there any way to refresh the application context to look into the new mergedindex without stopping the server ?
Is there anyway to do the above issue ?
Do Nutch provide any option to solve the same ?

Any help would greatly help.
Thanks in advance.
regards

One method I have used in that past is to "touch
/[webpath...]/WEB-INF/web.xml".  That requires a servlet container that
detects an updated timestamp on web.xml and restarts the app.

Another way is to add a customer wrapper around the jsp code that gets the
NutchBean to detect some sort of new index flag and create a new nutchbean.
I had memory problems with this method, and just touch the web.xml from my
crawl script.
