Torin Danil commented on LUCENE-1551:
-------------------------------------
Since we moved delete to IndexWriter, I strongly feel that IndexReader SHOULD
be always read-only,
so your patch makes perfect sense to me.
I know that there are still some operations that IndexWriter can't do, and
real-time search needs them,
so that's why LUCENE-1516 was created, right? But those guys don't need to open
previous commit point,
they need latest & greatest, so the patch should work for them too.
But in the end (lucene4, or maybe sooner?), could it be possible to move all
modifying methods
to IndexWriter and let IndexReader to be what it says it is: a READER?
Beside this totally random talk, the patch looks good, I'll try to test it in a
day or two and let you know if there are any problems.
