Simon Willnauer commented on LUCENE-5574:
-----------------------------------------
bq. So maybe we should just do that – never call IFD from an nrt-reader.close()
chain?
well I guess we have to since we decrement the reference. but I agree I wonder
if the _writer.deletePendingFiles();_ call is necessary?
bq. As for MDW, what if on close() it attempted to open a writer w/
OpenMode.OPEN, then close it, before it verifies there are no leftover files?
Then the unused files will get deleted, and we'd still have a check in MDW that
we didn't leave any writer/reader open, or leaking files?
on the one hand I think this would be odd but on the other our current behavior
requires you to close everything in order which might not be absolutely
necessary and might actually lead to bug if we enforce calling inorder so I
think that might actually be a good thing what you suggest? Mike WDYT

> Today NRT Readers try to clean up unused files via their IW reference when
> they are closed. Yet, if the index writer is already closed another index
> could have been created on the same directory which can create the same files
> as the IW before. For the NRT Reader those files are not referenced and it
> will simply wipe them away. If you use this in a replication scenario where
> directories are reused this can simply wipe your index away or in combination
> with the FSync issue LUCENE-5570 create 0-byte files. I have a test that
> reproduces this issue
