# Class RAFDirectory

java.lang.Object
org.apache.lucene.store.Directory
org.apache.lucene.store.BaseDirectory
org.apache.lucene.store.FSDirectory
org.apache.lucene.misc.store.RAFDirectory

All Implemented Interfaces:
  `Closeable`, `AutoCloseable`

public class RAFDirectory extends FSDirectory
A straightforward implementation of `FSDirectory` using java.io.RandomAccessFile. However, this class has poor concurrent performance (multiple threads will bottleneck) as it synchronizes when multiple threads read from the same file. It's usually better to use `NIOFSDirectory` or `MMapDirectory` instead.

NOTE: Because this uses RandomAccessFile, it will generally not work with non-default filesystem providers. It is only provided for applications that relied on the fact that RandomAccessFile's IO was not interruptible.
