Otis, Thanks. This seems to agree with what I've seen myself. The system I'm working on is extremely dynamic, so this will be an issue for me. The method I think you're talking about is IndexReader.lastModified. I'm not sure this actually tells me if the IndexReader I have is up to date, but it would tell me if there has been a change since I opened it (assuming I have saved off the open time). Is there something a little more direct?

Hm, this sounds an awful lot like a FAQ, yet I don't see it in Lucene's FAQ at jGuru.com. You need to close and reopen the index(reader) if you want to see the latest changes. There is a method that you can use to figure out if the index has been modified since you opened it.
