Class LocalFileSystem

java.lang.Object
  org.terrier.utility.io.LocalFileSystem

All Implemented Interfaces:

Files.FSCapability, FileSystem

public class LocalFileSystem
extends Object
implements FileSystem, Files.FSCapability

This is a Terrier File Abstraction Layer implementation of the local file system. The file system implementation for the "file:" scheme can handle all file system capabilities (READ,WRITE,RANDOM_READ,RANDOM_WRITE,LS_DIR and STAT). Generally speaking, this is a lightweight wrapper around the following four Java SE classes: java.io.File and java.io.FileInputStream and java.io.FileOutputStream, java.io.RandomAccessFile.

On Windows, this FileSystem also advertises support for all the single-letter file systems, eg A:, C:, D:

Since:

2.1
