Hi, I want to be able to regenerate index from time to time. I'm using IndexSearcher for search and want to be able to release the current index file so that I can replace it with the new one. But once IndexSearcher is instantiated it does not seem to release index file even if I call close().
I'm running the test on Windows XP. Here is a short test that I use: String indexDir = "C:/IndexTemp2/index/"; IndexSearcher searcher = new IndexSearcher(new MMapDirectory(new File(indexDir))); searcher.close(); /* Trying to see if the index file can be modified */ new FileWriter(indexDir + "_0.cfs"); /* java.io.FileNotFoundException: C:\IndexTemp2\index\_0.cfs (The requested operation cannot be performed on a file with a user-mapped section open.) */ After I close IndexSearcher I try to check if I can modify file, but it is in use. Could someone tell me what is the correct way to close the IndexReader? I will try to attach the JUnit test class and index directory as ZIP archive to this message. Thanks, Sergey
