    35 /**
       
    36  * File manager for tools operating on Java™ programming language
       
    37  * source and class files.  In this context, <em>file</em> means an
       
    38  * abstraction of regular files and other sources of data.
       
    39  *
       
    40  * <p>When constructing new JavaFileObjects, the file manager must
       
    41  * determine where to create them.  For example, if a file manager
       
    42  * manages regular files on a file system, it would most likely have a
       
    43  * current/working directory to use as default location when creating
       
    44  * or finding files.  A number of hints can be provided to a file
       
    45  * manager as to where to create files.  Any file manager might choose
       
    46  * to ignore these hints.
       
    47  *
       
    48  * <p>Some methods in this interface use class names.  Such class
       
    49  * names must be given in the Java Virtual Machine internal form of
       
    50  * fully qualified class and interface names.  For convenience '.'
       
    51  * and '/' are interchangeable.  The internal form is defined in
       
    52  * chapter four of the
       
    53  * <a href="http://java.sun.com/docs/books/vmspec/2nd-edition/jvms-maintenance.html">Java
       
    54  * Virtual Machine Specification</a>.
       
    55 
       
    56  * <blockquote><p>
       
    57  *   <i>Discussion:</i> this means that the names
       
    58  *   "java/lang.package-info", "java/lang/package-info",
       
    59  *   "java.lang.package-info", are valid and equivalent.  Compare to
       
    60  *   binary name as defined in the
       
    61  *   <a href="http://java.sun.com/docs/books/jls/">Java Language
       
    62  *   Specification (JLS)</a> section 13.1 "The Form of a Binary".
       
    63  * </p></blockquote>
       
    64  *
       
    65  * <p>The case of names is significant.  All names should be treated
       
    66  * as case-sensitive.  For example, some file systems have
       
    67  * case-insensitive, case-aware file names.  File objects representing
       
    68  * such files should take care to preserve case by using {@link
       
    69  * java.io.File#getCanonicalFile} or similar means.  If the system is
       
    70  * not case-aware, file objects must use other means to preserve case.
       
    71  *
       
    72  * <p><em><a name="relative_name">Relative names</a>:</em> some
       
    73  * methods in this interface use relative names.  A relative name is a
       
    74  * non-null, non-empty sequence of path segments separated by '/'.
       
    75  * '.' or '..'  are invalid path segments.  A valid relative name must
       
    76  * match the "path-rootless" rule of <a
       
    77  * href="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3986.txt">RFC&nbsp;3986</a>,
       
    78  * section&nbsp;3.3.  Informally, this should be true:
       
    79  *
       
    80  * <!-- URI.create(relativeName).normalize().getPath().equals(relativeName) -->
       
    81  * <pre>  URI.{@linkplain java.net.URI#create create}(relativeName).{@linkplain java.net.URI#normalize normalize}().{@linkplain java.net.URI#getPath getPath}().equals(relativeName)</pre>
       
    82  *
       
    83  * <p>All methods in this interface might throw a SecurityException.
       
    84  *
       
    85  * <p>An object of this interface is not required to support
       
    86  * multi-threaded access, that is, be synchronized.  However, it must
       
    87  * support concurrent access to different file objects created by this
       
    88  * object.
       
    89  *
       
    90  * <p><em>Implementation note:</em> a consequence of this requirement
       
    91  * is that a trivial implementation of output to a {@linkplain
       
    92  * java.util.jar.JarOutputStream} is not a sufficient implementation.
       
    93  * That is, rather than creating a JavaFileObject that returns the
       
    94  * JarOutputStream directly, the contents must be cached until closed
       
    95  * and then written to the JarOutputStream.
       
    96  *
       
    97  * <p>Unless explicitly allowed, all methods in this interface might
       
    98  * throw a NullPointerException if given a {@code null} argument.
