Uwe Schindler commented on LUCENE-6508:
---------------------------------------

Just for record, so we don't forget:

- the inner class oal.store.Lock.With is obsolete, it is no longer used 
anywhere. Can be removed ASAP. It was just there before the famous Java 7 
try-with-resources was added. As Lock is closeable now, you can do:

{code:java}
try (Lock lock = directory.obtainLock(name)) {
  // do stuff
}
{code}

So the class is obsolete.

> Simplify Directory/lock api

> See LUCENE-6507 for some background. In general it would be great if you can 
> just acquire an immutable lock (or you get a failure) and then you close that 
> to release it.
> Today the API might be too much for what is needed by IW.
