             Summary: SegmentReader.numDeletedDocs() sometimes gives an 
incorrect numDeletedDocs
                 Key: LUCENE-4080
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-4080
             Project: Lucene - Java
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: core/index
    Affects Versions: 4.0, 4.1
            Reporter: Adrien Grand
            Priority: Trivial
             Fix For: 4.1


At merge time, SegmentReader sometimes gives an incorrect value for 
numDeletedDocs.

>From LUCENE-2357:
bq. As far as I know, [SegmenterReader.numDeletedDocs() is] only unreliable in 
this context (SegmentReader passed to SegmentMerger for merging); this is 
because we allow newly marked deleted docs to happen concurrently up until the 
moment we need to pass the SR instance to the merger (search for "// Must sync 
to ensure BufferedDeletesStream" in IndexWriter.java) ... but it would be nice 
to fix that, so I think open a new issue (it won't block this one)? We should 
be able to make a new SR instance, sharing the same core as the current one but 
using the correct delCount...

bq. It would be cleaner (but I think hairier) to create a new SR for merging 
that holds the correct delCount, but let's do that under the separate issue.

bq.  it would be best if the SegmentReader's numDeletedDocs were always 
correct, but, fixing that in IndexWriter is somewhat tricky. Ie, the fix could 
be hairy but the end result ("SegmentReader.numDeletedDocs can always be 
trusted") would be cleaner...
