Class FilesystemInfo

java.lang.Object
  info.informatica.io.FilesystemInfo

Direct Known Subclasses:

UnixFilesystemInfo

public class FilesystemInfo
extends Object

Encapsulates a few useful filesystem properties, and utility methods.

It uses a few configuration parameters, which can be set by subclasses:

• dir.back: Usually the "..", represents upper directory
• dir.cwd: Usually the ".", represents current directory
• disk.separator: If a volume label precedes the path (as in DOS), it is separated by it (":")
• filename.casesens (boolean): are filanames case sensitive?
