public class FilePath
extends java.lang.Object

Implements a class to manipulate generic file system path structures that can apply to any type of file system-like structure including Linux, Hadoop, and in future possibly Zookeeper.

Constructor Summary

FilePath()
Construct a path with no arguments, which creates a root path.

FilePath(FilePath base)
Constructs a path from an existing path.

FilePath(FilePath base, java.lang.String subpath)
Constructs a path constructed from an existing path plus a string.

FilePath(java.util.List<java.lang.String> base, boolean absolute)
Constructs a path from a list of elements and a flag to indicate whether it is absolute.

FilePath(java.lang.String path)
Constructs a path from a string, which may be a full or partial path.

Method Summary

FilePath	append(FilePath subPath) Appends another path to end of this one.
FilePath	append(java.util.List<java.lang.String> subElements) Appends 0 or more path elements to the end.
FilePath	append(java.lang.String subPath) Appends a string, which may consist of one or more elements.
java.lang.String	element(int i) Returns the i'th element in the path.
java.util.List<java.lang.String>	elements() Returns the elements that compose the path.
boolean	equals(java.lang.Object other) Returns true if the argument is a FilePath instance and denotes the same location.
boolean	isAbsolute() Returns true if this is an absolute path.
java.lang.String	toString() Returns a full path with leading "/" if absolute.
