Interface PathDetails

All Known Implementing Classes:

BasicPathDetails

public interface PathDetails

Describes a Path along with its metadata. The information is accurate as of the time of the entry is created; the same calls at a future point in time on the associated path using the same FileClient may return a different value.

Because details can only be reported on existing file system objects, it is safe to assume the associated path existed at the time of the call.

Method Summary

boolean	isHidden() Indicates whether the associated path is hidden by the file system.
boolean	isReadable() Indicates whether the associated path can be read.
boolean	isWritable() Indicates whether the associated path can be written.
