Nima, The JavaDocs are the currently the most accurate documentation on Lucene.Net [http://lucene.apache.org/java/2_9_1/api/all/org/apache/lucene/store/FSD irectory.html].
In 2.9, the static method FSDirectory.Open should be used, which will create an instance of the appropriate FSDirectory type, which for Lucene.Net will be SimpleFSDirectory.

Is there a writeup somewhere describing the differences among the Directory classes? The documentation is copy and pasted from the Java version and I suspect the differences due to JVM peculiarities and such do not really translate to the .NET world : ). So how do we chose between these? Thanks!
