Since I need to overwrite an old ramDirectory file and I don't want memory leaks, I have the following code lines to close first the existing RAMDirectory and create a new one.
INDEX_DIR.close(); INDEX_DIR = new RAMDirectory(); However, I get the following exception. Should I remove close() line and just create a new RAMDirectory ? The old one will be deleted anyway ? thans Exception in thread "main" org.apache.lucene.store.AlreadyClosedException: this Directory is closed at org.apache.lucene.store.Directory.ensureOpen(Directory.java:224) at org.apache.lucene.store.RAMDirectory.listAll(RAMDirectory.java:86) at org.apache.lucene.index.SegmentInfos$FindSegmentsFile.run(SegmentInfos.java:529) at org.apache.lucene.index.SegmentInfos$FindSegmentsFile.run(SegmentInfos.java:481) at org.apache.lucene.index.SegmentInfos.read(SegmentInfos.java:256) at org.apache.lucene.index.SegmentInfos.read(SegmentInfos.java:249) at org.apache.lucene.index.IndexReader.indexExists(IndexReader.java:915) at org.apache.lucene.index.IndexWriter.<init>(IndexWriter.java:740) at CollectionIndexer.run(CollectionIndexer.java:85) at Clusterer.<init>(Clusterer.java:76) at Main.main(Main.java:11)
