The problem I'm having is once the MultiSearcher is open, it holds on to the index file
An IndexReader holds open the files... this is a feature. Not holding the file open would mean that the index would actively change while being searched. Lucene is designed to search on a static index (but one that can be updated in the background with no impact to the current open readers). -Yonik --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
