Doug Cutting commented on LUCENE-1451: -------------------------------------- A bit of history, if any care. Originally Lucene synchronized only on the Directory to coordinate index writes. This was the primary motivation for the Directory cache. http://tinyurl.com/62ugs9#l120 Later, lock files were added, but Directory synchronization remained as an optimization, to avoid hitting the filesystem when coordinating threads in the same process. http://tinyurl.com/5dzsyq#l125 Now Directory-based synchronization has been dropped entirely, so the Directory cache can now go too. > Can't create NIOFSDirectory w/o setting a system property > --------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: LUCENE-1451 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1451 > Project: Lucene - Java > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: Yonik Seeley > Assignee: Yonik Seeley > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 2.9 > > Attachments: LUCENE-1451.patch, LUCENE-1451.patch, LUCENE-1451.patch > > > NIOFSDirectory.getDirectory() returns a FSDirectory object -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
