java.lang.Object
  extended byorg.gjt.sp.jedit.io.VFS
Direct Known Subclasses:
FavoritesVFS, FileRootsVFS, FileVFS, UrlVFS

public abstract class VFS
extends java.lang.Object

A virtual filesystem implementation.

Plugins can provide virtual file systems by defining entries in their services.xml files like so:

<SERVICE CLASS="org.gjt.sp.jedit.io.VFS" NAME="name">
    new MyVFS();
</SERVICE>
URLs of the form name:path will then be handled by the VFS named name.

See org.gjt.sp.jedit.ServiceManager for details.

Session objects:

A session is used to persist things like login information, any network sockets, etc. File system implementations that do not need this kind of persistence return a dummy object as a session.

Methods whose names are prefixed with "_" expect to be given a previously-obtained session object. A session must be obtained from the AWT thread in one of two ways:

When done, the session must be disposed of using _endVFSSession(Object,Component) 55 .

Thread safety:

The following methods cannot be called from an I/O thread: All remaining methods are required to be thread-safe in subclasses.

Implementing a VFS

You can override as many or as few methods as you want. Make sure getCapabilities() 55 returns a value reflecting the functionality implemented by your VFS.


Nested Class Summary

          Implementation of org.gjt.sp.jedit.MiscUtilities.Compare interface that compares VFS.DirectoryEntry instances.
 
Field Summary

This was the official API for adding items to a file system browser's Plugins menu in jEdit 4.1 and earlier. In jEdit 4.2, there is a different way of doing this, you must provide a browser.actions.xml file in your plugin JAR, and define plugin.class.browser-menu-item or plugin.class.browser-menu properties. See org.gjt.sp.jedit.EditPlugin for details.

Constructor Detail

VFS

public VFS(java.lang.String name)
Deprecated. Use the form where the constructor takes a capability list.


VFS

public VFS(java.lang.String name,
           int caps)
Creates a new virtual filesystem.


VFS

public VFS(java.lang.String name,
           int caps,
           java.lang.String[] extAttrs)
Creates a new virtual filesystem.

Since:
jEdit 4.2pre1
Method Detail

getName

public java.lang.String getName()
Returns this VFS's name. The name is used to obtain the label stored in the vfs.name.label property.


getCapabilities

public int getCapabilities()
Returns the capabilities of this VFS.

Since:
jEdit 2.6pre2

getExtendedAttributes

public java.lang.String[] getExtendedAttributes()
Returns the extended attributes supported by this VFS.

Since:
jEdit 4.2pre1

showBrowseDialog

public java.lang.String showBrowseDialog(java.lang.Object[] session,
                                         java.awt.Component comp)
Displays a dialog box that should set up a session and return the initial URL to browse.

Since:
jEdit 2.7pre1

getFileName

public java.lang.String getFileName(java.lang.String path)
Returns the file name component of the specified path.

Since:
jEdit 3.1pre4

getParentOfPath

public java.lang.String getParentOfPath(java.lang.String path)
Returns the parent of the specified path. This must be overridden to return a non-null value for browsing of this filesystem to work.

Since:
jEdit 2.6pre5

constructPath

public java.lang.String constructPath(java.lang.String parent,
                                      java.lang.String path)
Constructs a path from the specified directory and file name component. This must be overridden to return a non-null value, otherwise browsing this filesystem will not work.

Unless you are writing a VFS, this method should not be called directly. To ensure correct behavior, you must call MiscUtilities.constructPath(String,String)>MiscUtilities.constructPath(String,String) 55 instead.

Since:
jEdit 2.6pre2

getFileSeparator

public char getFileSeparator()
Returns the file separator used by this VFS.

Since:
jEdit 2.6pre9

getTwoStageSaveName

public java.lang.String getTwoStageSaveName(java.lang.String path)
Returns a temporary file name based on the given path. By default jEdit first saves a file to #name#save# and then renames it to the original file. However some virtual file systems might not support the # character in filenames, so this method permits the VFS to override this behavior.

Since:
jEdit 4.1pre7

reloadDirectory

public void reloadDirectory(java.lang.String path)
Called before a directory is reloaded by the file system browser. Can be used to flush a cache, etc.

Since:
jEdit 4.0pre3

                                         java.awt.Component comp)
Creates a VFS session. This method is called from the AWT thread, so it should not do any I/O. It could, however, prompt for a login name and password, for example.

Since:
jEdit 2.6pre3

load

public boolean load(org.gjt.sp.jedit.View view,
                    org.gjt.sp.jedit.Buffer buffer,

Saves the specifies buffer. The default implementation posts an I/O request to the I/O thread.


insert

public boolean insert(org.gjt.sp.jedit.View view,
                      org.gjt.sp.jedit.Buffer buffer,
                      java.lang.String path)
Inserts a file into the specified buffer. The default implementation posts an I/O request to the I/O thread.
