George Aroush commented on LUCENENET-210:
-----------------------------------------
I'm still not sure what's the best approach to address Mike's point #3. Should
we just change it to return DirectoryInfo (with 2.9 release) and move on? I'm
not comfortable with the addition of a new API as it won't be consistent with
Java Lucene.
This API is public (in Java Lucene too) but is not documented, so I'm guessing
it's not really used externally.
If there is no objection, I'm ready to commit this patch by having
FSDirectory.GetFile() return DirectoryInfo.

> From what I know of the Java File class, it can represent a file or a
> directory, whereas in .NET the explicit classes FileInfo and DirectoryInfo
> would apply. I've altered the usage of the two different classes depending
> on what the purpose is, be it a directory or a file. This does change the
> interface to instantiation of classes such as IndexReader with a
> DirectoryInfo object as opposed to a FileInfo object which is more precise
> and actually cleans up the internals a bit.
