public abstract class IFile
extends java.lang.Object
implements java.io.Serializable, IInputStreamProvider

Represents a LumisPortal file or directory that may or may not exist.

It uses a PortalFilePath to normalize the file or directory among the cluster servers and exposes the supported file and directory operations. Once created, its PortalFilePath is immutable. The PortalFilePath also is used to check whether this IFile is equal to another (see equals(Object)).

In some implementations the changes made in one cluster server might take a while to be reflected in the other servers.

Implementations must raise the appropriate filesystem events as file systems changes are performed using this API.

Implementations must guarantee the read/write file integrity. The following must be guaranteed (even in highly concurrent scenarios):

• The read operation must be able to read the entire file content without garbling with simultaneous writes
• The write operation must be able to write the entire file content without garbling with simultaneous writes

To accomplish this, some implementations may use locks.

Any changes must take effect immediately, so that if the value is read immediately after the change operation, the returned value is the one that has been set, once the commands are called in the same cluster server.
However, the same functionality is not guarantee if the change operation and the read operation are called in different cluster servers.
But if a file operation is performed through a cluster transmission with a total order flag set, this file operation (in any server) must happen after any file operation performed before the transmission was sent in the cluster server that sent the transmission.

Constructor Detail

IFile

public IFile(PortalFilePath portalFilePath)

Creates a new instance with the given PortalFilePath.

Parameters:

portalFilePath - the portal file path.

Since:

8.0.0

Method Detail

getName

public final java.lang.String getName()

Returns the name of the file or directory. This is just the last name in the name sequence. If the relative path is empty (see PortalFilePath.getRelativePath()), then the empty string is returned.

Returns:

The name of the file or directory, or the empty string if this name sequence is empty

Since:

8.0.0

See Also:

PortalFilePath.getName()

getParent

public IFile getParent()

Returns the parent directory. If this is already the root of the base folder defined in portal file path, null is returned. In other words, if getPath().getRelativePath() is an empty string, null is returned.

Returns:

the parent directory

Since:

8.0.0

See Also:

PortalFilePath.getParent()

resolve

public IFile resolve(java.lang.String relativePath)

Resolves the given path against this file. The path must not be an absolute path. In other words, it cannot begin with a /.

The path of a file is composed by elements separated by /. The resolve process consists in create a new file using this file's relative path concatenated with a / and the given relative path. If the given relative path contains an element .. it means this .. and the previous element will be eliminated (for example my/folder/../file.txt will become my/file.txt).

Parameters:

relativePath - the relative path to be resolved.

Returns:

a file relative to this one.

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if path is null or it starts with a /.

Since:

8.0.0

Returns:

whether this file is descendent of the given file.

Since:

relativize

public final java.lang.String relativize(IFile other)

                     java.io.IOException

Renames the file denoted by this logical filesystem object. This operation is equivalent to:

copyTo(dest);
deleteRecursively();

The rules of this operation follows the rules of copyTo(IFile) and deleteRecursively().

Parameters:

dest - The new logical filesystem object for the named file

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if dest is null

copyTo

public void copyTo(IFile dest)
            throws java.io.FileNotFoundException,
                   FileCouldNotBeCopiedException,
                   java.io.IOException

Copies the file denoted by this logical filesystem object.

This operation will copy this file or directory to the target file or directory using the following criteria:

• If this file does not exist, a FileNotFoundException will be raised.
• If this file is a regular file:
  • If the target file does not exist, the target file will be created using this file's content.
  • If the target file is an already existent regular file, the target's content will be replaced by this file's content.
  • If the target file is not a regular file, a FileNotFoundException will be raised.
• If this file is a directory:
  • If the target file does not exist, the target file will be created as a directory and this file's children will be copied recursively.
  • If the target file is a directory, this file's children will be copied recursively. Those files that already existed in the target but does not exist in this file will not be removed.
  • If the target file exists and is not a directory, a FileNotFoundException will be raised.
  In the case this file is a directory, it is important to notice that if some error occur during the copy of some subfile, some files might already have been copied and/or some directories might already have been created.
• If this file exists but it isn't neither a regular file nor a directory, a FileNotFoundException will be raised.

Parameters:

dest - The new logical filesystem object for the named file

Throws:

java.io.FileNotFoundException - if this file doesn't exist

FileCouldNotBeCopiedException - if some error occur during copy

Returns an InputStream to be used to read this file.

If the named file does not exist, is a directory rather than a regular file, or for some other reason cannot be opened for reading then a FileNotFoundException is thrown.

Any existent content in the file will be discarded and replaced with the content written to this output stream.

The new file content will only be available after OutputStream.close() is called.

If the file exists but is a directory rather than a regular file, does not exist but cannot be created, the parent directory does not exist, or cannot be opened for any other reason then a FileNotFoundException is thrown. This exception can be thrown in at any time between this call and the call of OutputStream.close().
