  • Method Details

    • getFile

      File getFile()
      Returns the file being visited.
      Returns:
      The file. Never returns null.

    • isDirectory

      boolean isDirectory()
      Returns true if this element is a directory, or false if this element is a regular file.
      Returns:
      true if this element is a directory.

    • getLastModified

      long getLastModified()
      Returns the last modified time of this file at the time of file traversal.
      Returns:
      The last modified time.

    • getSize

      long getSize()
      Returns the size of this file at the time of file traversal.
      Returns:
      The size, in bytes.

    • open

      InputStream open()
      Opens this file as an input stream. Generally, calling this method is more performant than calling new FileInputStream(getFile()).
      Returns:
      The input stream. Never returns null. The caller is responsible for closing this stream.

    • copyTo

      void copyTo(OutputStream output)
      Copies the content of this file to an output stream. Generally, calling this method is more performant than calling new FileInputStream(getFile()).
      Parameters:
      output - The output stream to write to. The caller is responsible for closing this stream.

    • copyTo

      boolean copyTo(File target)
      Copies this file to the given target file. Does not copy the file if the target is already a copy of this file.
      Parameters:
      target - the target file.
      Returns:
      true if this file was copied, false if it was up-to-date

    • getName

      String getName()
      Returns the base name of this file.
      Returns:
      The name. Never returns null.

    • getPath

      String getPath()
      Returns the path of this file, relative to the root of the containing file tree. Always uses '/' as the hierarchy separator, regardless of platform file separator. Same as calling getRelativePath().getPathString().
      Returns:
      The path. Never returns null.

    • getRelativePath

      RelativePath getRelativePath()
      Returns the path of this file, relative to the root of the containing file tree.
      Returns:
      The path. Never returns null.

    • getMode

      int getMode()
      Returns the Unix permissions of this file, e.g. 0644.
      Returns:
      The Unix file permissions.
