------------------------------------
I agree, I'll keep this formula and add the link to Harmony (also clarify in a
comment that 0x2710 == 10000). Will commit this shortly.
> Improving _TestUtil.getTempDir

> Key: LUCENE-4639
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-4639
> Project: Lucene - Core
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Shai Erera

> Spinoff from here:
> http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/TestUtil-getTempFile-may-fail-on-quot-Access-Denied-quot-td4028048.html.
> _TestUtil.getTempDir uses createTempFile and then deletes the file. While
> this usually works, if someone runs tests by multiple JVMs and does not
> ensure each JVM gets an isolated temp.dir to work in, that my result in two
> JVMs sharing the same directory.
> Also, on Windows, if you call getTempDir on an existing directory, you get an
> "Access is denied" exception.
> Dawid proposed a simple solution to just call mkdirs() continuously until
> success. I'd like to try that.
> Also, I think that genTempFile could use some house cleaning, e.g.:
> * tempFileLocker can be just an Object instance? Why do we need a class?
> * If we initialize counter and counterBase in a static clause, we can avoid
> checking if counter==0 as well as passing Random to genTempFile (that will
> remove any suspicion that it does anything randomly)
> ** Also, instead of synchronizing on tempFileLocker, can we just use
> AtomicInteger for the counter?
> I'll modify getTempDir first. It documents "does not create the directory", I
> want to make sure no test fails due that.
