Actually, scratch that request. As long as they are package level, I can put the class in the same package. Problem was that in the past some important states fields have been private.

I think the getters need to be public, as it makes many of the 'cache by segment' code much cleaner. Currently I cannot subclass and must replace the class in the jar because I need access to much o this information.

Is there some reason not to make the getters be public, (or copy on read public)?

Michael McCandless updated LUCENE-811:
--------------------------------------

    Attachment: LUCENE-811.patch

Attaching proposed patch to change SegmentInfos (and all of its methods/fields) back to package level protection.

I also found a few other cases (IndexFileNames, IndexFileNamesFilter, SegmentInfo) that I had added public methods which should be kept at package protection.

Public API inconsistency

                Key: LUCENE-811
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ LUCENE-811
            Project: Lucene - Java
         Issue Type: Bug
         Components: Index
   Affects Versions: 2.1
        Environment: 2.1.0 release
           Reporter: Andrzej Bialecki
        Assigned To: Michael McCandless
           Priority: Minor
        Attachments: LUCENE-811.patch


org.apache.lucene.index.SegmentInfos is public, and contains public methods (which is good for expert-level index manipulation tools such as Luke). However, SegmentInfo class has package visibility. This leads to a strange result that it's possible to read SegmentInfos, but it's not possible to access its details (SegmentInfos.info(int)) from a user application.
The solution is to make SegmentInfo class public.
