Thanks, I understand.

Nevertheless, a proper check for > Integer.MAX_VALUE won't hurt and will make the function tolerate the whole range of its parameter values.

There are a few places in Lucene (prob in a lot of other code as well)
where you should not use Long.MAX_VALUE.

Don't use it as the number of docs to return in a TopDocsCollector
either. If the code that takes that long even just adds 1 to the
variable...your screwed with a huge negative number.

In your case here, a huge long is getting cast to an int, and the int
just cannot hold a number that big.

Prob could be handled better, but I would avoid using Long.MAX_VALUE anyway.

In Lucene 2.x, in method Lock#obtain(long lockWaitTimeout) I see the
following line:

int maxSleepCount = (int)(lockWaitTimeout / LOCK_POLL_INTERVAL);

Since I wanted to set the lock timeout to the largest possible, I called
the IndexWriter#setDefaultWriteLockTimeout(Long.MAX_VALUE). This
produces the effect in the quoted line that we get maxSleepCount a
negative number.

Is this intended?
