worrying about reflection "security" in a library is pointless. any real security needs to be accomplished using server isolation, and/or data access/encryption

----------------------------------------------

Doesn't making such methods public mean they can be called trough reflection?

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.
