OK this seems to be my misunderstanding. With a file system backed lucene I think you need to close a writer, before a reader can see the changes.

If I add

indexWriter.commit();

to the code it does nothing, however

indexReader.clearCache();

does the trick.

What is the lifespan of a Reader and Writer in the Cassandra world? Should I be getting a new Reader/Writer for each user interaction?

Sorry for the noob questions, I am off to read more...

Reader should be reopened whenever you want to see changes. this does nothing more then clear its internal cache.

But the 2nd read in my example gives you a TopDocs size of 1, but when you get the Document it has no Field objects. I would consider this a bug as you get reference to the Document, but it is empty. Either the Document should be filled in, or not returned.
