Lance Norskog commented on SOLR-1691:
-------------------------------------
A different method would be: open the index, walk the FSDirectory, and delete
every file that Lucene does not care about. Is this possible?
> Deal with deleting old index files in Windows auto-magicly

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-1691
> Project: Solr
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Hoss Man
>
> Windows users are frequently confused/frustrated by the size of an index
> after making lots of changes/commits because of the way Windows prevents
> files with open handles from being deleted.
> In Lucene-Java, IndexWriter will attempt to delete any old files whenever it
> can, but only on a subsequent change -- we should see if we could add
> something to Solr to try and be more proactive about this...
