             Summary: Make LockFactory final on Directory
                 Key: LUCENE-5953
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-5953
             Project: Lucene - Core
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: core/store
            Reporter: Uwe Schindler
            Assignee: Uwe Schindler
             Fix For: 5.0


We should remove the setters for the LockFactory from Directory and make the 
field final. It is a bug to change the LockFactory after creating a directory, 
because you may break locking (if locks are currently held).

The LockFactory should be passed on ctor only.

The other suggestion: Should LockFactory have a directory at all? We moved away 
from having the lock separately from the index directory. This is no longer a 
supported configuration (since approx Lucene 2.9 or 3.0). I would like to 
remove the directory from LockFactory and make it part of the Directory only.
