          org.apache.lucene.store.je.JEDirectory

    public class JEDirectory

extends Directory

Port of Andi Vajda's DbDirectory to to Java Edition of Berkeley Database A JEDirectory is a Berkeley DB JE based implementation of `Directory`. It uses two `Db` database handles, one for storing file records and another for storing file data blocks.

Field Summary
`protected Database` `blocks`
`protected Database` `files`
`protected int` `flags`
`protected Set` `openFiles`
`protected Transaction` `txn`

Fields inherited from class org.apache.lucene.store.Directory

Constructor Summary
`JEDirectory(Transaction txn, Database files, Database blocks)`
`JEDirectory(Transaction txn, Database files, Database blocks, int flags)` Instantiate a DbDirectory.

Method Summary
`void` `close()` Closes the store.
`IndexOutput` `createOutput(String name)` Creates a new, empty file in the directory with the given name.
`void` `deleteFile(String name)` Removes an existing file in the directory.
`boolean` `fileExists(String name)` Returns true iff a file with the given name exists.
`long` `fileLength(String name)` Returns the length of a file in the directory.
`long` `fileModified(String name)` Returns the time the named file was last modified.
`void` `flush()` Flush the currently open files.
`String[]` `list()` Returns an array of strings, one for each file in the directory.
`Lock` `makeLock(String name)` Construct a `Lock`.
`IndexInput` `openInput(String name)` Returns a stream reading an existing file.
`void` `renameFile(String from, String to)` Renames an existing file in the directory.
`void` `setTransaction(Transaction txn)` Once a transaction handle was committed it is no longer valid.
`void` `touchFile(String name)` Set the modified time of an existing file to now.

Constructor Detail

### JEDirectory

    public JEDirectory(Transaction txn,
                       Database files,
                       Database blocks,
                       int flags)

  Instantiate a DbDirectory. The same threading rules that apply to Berkeley DB handles apply to instances of DbDirectory.

  Parameters:
    `txn` - a transaction handle that is going to be used for all db operations done by this instance. This parameter may be `null`.
    `files` - a db handle to store file records.
    `blocks` - a db handle to store file data blocks.
    `flags` - flags used for db read operations.

### JEDirectory

    public JEDirectory(Transaction txn,
                       Database files,
                       Database blocks)

Method Detail

### close

    public void close()
               throws IOException

  Description copied from class: `Directory`
  Closes the store.

  Specified by:
    `close` in class `Directory`
  Throws:
    `IOException`

### flush

    public void flush()
               throws IOException

  Flush the currently open files. After they have been flushed it is safe to commit the transaction without closing this DbDirectory instance first.

  Throws:
    `IOException`
  See Also:
    `setTransaction(Transaction)`

### createOutput

    public IndexOutput createOutput(String name)
                             throws IOException

  Description copied from class: `Directory`
  Creates a new, empty file in the directory with the given name. Returns a stream writing this file.

  Specified by:
    `createOutput` in class `Directory`
  Throws:
    `IOException`

### deleteFile

    public void deleteFile(String name)
                    throws IOException

  Description copied from class: `Directory`
  Removes an existing file in the directory.

  Specified by:
    `deleteFile` in class `Directory`
  Throws:
    `IOException`

### fileExists

    public boolean fileExists(String name)
                       throws IOException

  Description copied from class: `Directory`
  Returns true iff a file with the given name exists.

  Specified by:
    `fileExists` in class `Directory`
  Throws:
    `IOException`

### fileLength

    public long fileLength(String name)
                    throws IOException

  Description copied from class: `Directory`
  Returns the length of a file in the directory.

  Specified by:
    `fileLength` in class `Directory`
  Throws:
    `IOException`

### fileModified

    public long fileModified(String name)
                      throws IOException

  Description copied from class: `Directory`
  Returns the time the named file was last modified.

  Specified by:
    `fileModified` in class `Directory`
  Throws:
    `IOException`

### list

    public String[] list()
                  throws IOException

  Description copied from class: `Directory`
  Returns an array of strings, one for each file in the directory. This method may return null (for example for `FSDirectory` if the underlying directory doesn't exist in the filesystem or there are permissions problems).

  Specified by:
    `list` in class `Directory`
  Throws:
    `IOException`

### openInput

    public IndexInput openInput(String name)
                         throws IOException

  Description copied from class: `Directory`
  Returns a stream reading an existing file.

  Specified by:
    `openInput` in class `Directory`
  Throws:
    `IOException`

### makeLock

    public Lock makeLock(String name)

  Description copied from class: `Directory`
  Construct a `Lock`.

  Overrides:
    `makeLock` in class `Directory`
  Parameters:
    `name` - the name of the lock file

### renameFile

    public void renameFile(String from,
                           String to)
                    throws IOException

  Description copied from class: `Directory`
  Renames an existing file in the directory. If a file already exists with the new name, then it is replaced. This replacement is not guaranteed to be atomic.

  Specified by:
    `renameFile` in class `Directory`
  Throws:
    `IOException`

### touchFile

    public void touchFile(String name)

  Specified by:
    `touchFile` in class `Directory`
  Throws:
    `IOException`

### setTransaction

    public void setTransaction(Transaction txn)

  Once a transaction handle was committed it is no longer valid. In order to continue using this JEDirectory instance after a commit, the transaction handle has to be replaced.

  Parameters:
    `txn` - the new transaction handle to use
