,StandardFileSystemManager
public interface FileSystemManager
A FileSystemManager manages a set of file systems. This interface is used to locate aFileObject
by name from one of those file systems.To locate a
FileObject
, use one of theresolveFile()
methods.File Naming
A file system manager can recognise several types of file names:- Absolute URI. These must start with a scheme, such as
file:
orftp:
, followed by a scheme dependent file name. Some examples:file:/c:/somefile
orftp://somewhere.org/somefile
. - Absolute local file name. For example,
/home/someuser/a-file
orc:\dir\somefile.html
. Elements in the name can be separated using any of the following characters:/
,\
, or the native file separator character. For example, the following file names are the same:c:\somedir\somefile.xml
andc:/somedir/somefile.xml
. - Relative path. For example:
../somefile
orsomedir/file.txt
. The file system manager resolves relative paths against its base file. Elements in the relative path can be separated using/
,\
, or file system specific separator characters. Relative paths may also contain..
and.
elements. SeeFileObject.resolveFile(java.lang.String)
for more details.
