Michael McCandless commented on LUCENE-6384:
--------------------------------------------
bq. At least as a simple improvement, Adrien mentioned we can add
RIW.tryDeleteDocument that returns 'false' sometimes randomly?
+1
> remove or fix IndexWriter.tryDeleteDocument

> Key: LUCENE-6384
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-6384
> Project: Lucene - Core
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Robert Muir
>
> This method is causing bugs in tests, I think its a trap.
> I don't think people understand the semantics of it, and i don't like that
> its difficult for it to return false in tests
> So its unlikely to return false in tests, only in production. Broken just
> like java 7 string hashing.
> I think we should either remove it, rename it, fix the javadocs let
> IndexWriter create a random and intentionally return false from this method
> say 1% of the time to make it less trappy, something.
