With Lucene 1.4.3 I used to use a different lock directory from the default by setting org.apache.lucene.lockdir system property. But as per http://lucene.apache.org/java/docs/systemproperties.html this is not supported in Lucene 1.9 and above. I don't see any equivalent API for lockDir property though in Lucene 1.9.1. Does anyone know if using this system property is still supported?
Sorry if this is a bit of a side-track, but it's about locking and this thread reminded me of it.
Would it be possible to have the lock file inside the text index directory itself? I'd rather have my locks right next to the actual text index, so that even if a user is accessing it over a network it would still lock other users from writing to it.
I guess the system property could be set right before opening the index, but that isn't the best thread safety I could imagine.
