Hi. Sorry if I seem a stranger in this thread, but there is something that I can't resist clearing myself on.
Mark, you say that the additional documents added to a index, won't show up until the # of threads accessing the index hits 0; and subsequently the indexwriter instance is closed. But I suppose that the autocommit=true, asserts that all flushed (Added) documents are immediately committed ( and hence visible ) in the index, and no explicit cclosing ( releasiing ) of the Indexwriter instance is required. ( Of course, re-opening an IndexSearcher instance is required ). Am I being dumb ? Looking eagerly for you to shed some light on my doubt.
