Yonik Seeley commented on LUCENE-818: ------------------------------------- > we can use Hoss's neat approach and > specifically catch the NPE and rethrow as an AlreadyClosedException? I'm not enough of an expert to know if this would be faster or slower than a simple fileMap==null check. I would guess it depends on what needs to be set up in the stack frame to potentially catch an exception, and if the try/catch/throw code prevents any optimizations (such as inlining). Also, catching a NPE seems a little icky to me... so w/o more info I'd lean toward a fileMap==null check (if anything). > IndexWriter should detect when it's used after being closed > ----------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: LUCENE-818 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-818 > Project: Lucene - Java > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Index > Affects Versions: 2.1 > Reporter: Michael McCandless > Assigned To: Michael McCandless > Priority: Minor > Attachments: LUCENE-818.patch, LUCENE-818.take2.patch, > LUCENE-818.take3.patch, LUCENE-818.take4.patch > > > Spinoff from this thread on java-user: > http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/lucene/java-user/45986 > If you call addDocument on IndexWriter after it's closed you'll hit a > hard-to-explain NullPointerException (because the RAMDirectory was > closed).
