All Implemented Interfaces:

Closeable, AutoCloseable

public class NIOFSDirectory
extends FSDirectory

An FSDirectory implementation that uses java.nio's FileChannel's positional read, which allows multiple threads to read from the same file without synchronizing.

This class only uses FileChannel when reading; writing is achieved with FSDirectory.FSIndexOutput.

NOTE: NIOFSDirectory is not recommended on Windows because of a bug in how FileChannel.read is implemented in Sun's JRE. Inside of the implementation the position is apparently synchronized. See here for details.

NOTE: Accessing this class either directly or indirectly from a thread while it's interrupted can close the underlying file descriptor immediately if at the same time the thread is blocked on IO. The file descriptor will remain closed and subsequent access to NIOFSDirectory will throw a ClosedChannelException. If your application uses either Thread.interrupt() or Future.cancel(boolean) you should use SimpleFSDirectory in favor of NIOFSDirectory.

Constructor Detail

NIOFSDirectory

public NIOFSDirectory(File path,
                      LockFactory lockFactory)
               throws IOException

Create a new NIOFSDirectory for the named location.

Parameters:

path - the path of the directory

lockFactory - the lock factory to use, or null for the default (NativeFSLockFactory);

Throws:

IOException - if there is a low-level I/O error

NIOFSDirectory

public NIOFSDirectory(File path)
               throws IOException

Create a new NIOFSDirectory for the named location and NativeFSLockFactory.

Parameters:

path - the path of the directory

Throws:

IOException - if there is a low-level I/O error

Method Detail

openInput

public IndexInput openInput(String name,
                            IOContext context)
                     throws IOException

Creates an IndexInput for the file with the given name.

Specified by:

openInput in class Directory

Throws:

IOException

createSlicer

public Directory.IndexInputSlicer createSlicer(String name,
                                               IOContext context)
                                        throws IOException

Description copied from class: Directory

Creates an Directory.IndexInputSlicer for the given file name. IndexInputSlicer allows other Directory implementations to efficiently open one or more sliced IndexInput instances from a single file handle. The underlying file handle is kept open until the Directory.IndexInputSlicer is closed.

Must throw FileNotFoundException if the file does not exist (not java.nio.file.NoSuchFileException of Java 7).

Overrides:

createSlicer in class Directory

Throws:

IOException - if an IOException occurs
