Ralph Goers resolved VFS-337.
-----------------------------

       Resolution: Fixed
    Fix Version/s: 2.0

AbstractFileObject and classes that extend it now take an AbstractFileName 
instead of a FileName. This also applies to the FileSystem and FileProvider.

> AbstractFileObject ctor accepts FileName as a parameter, but actually 
> requires AbstractFileName

>
> The AbstractFileObject constructor accepts FileName as a parameter, but 
> actually requires an AbstractFileName.
> Anything else will generate a ClassCastException.
> The reason for the cast is to allow access to the package-protected method 
> void AbstractFileName#setType(FileType type)
> Many of the AbstractFileObject methods rely on being able to invoke the 
> setType method, so perhaps the parameter should be changed accordingly?
> This will change the API and require changes to subclasses.
> I'll add Javadoc to document the restriction.
