I'm using Windows and it worked just fine, although the procedure is a bit awkward. Why do I have to open a new writer? closing the current one (after switching readers) isn't enough? is it because of deleted documents that
need to be updated?

It's because Windows doesn't let you delete a file that's open (not due to deleted documents).

Do you know if it's different in more advanced versions than 2.1 ?

In fact, it is: as of 2.3, IndexWriter will try to delete unreferenced files during close(). So once you upgrade you won't need to open & close a new IndexWriter.
