Interface FileSystem

All Known Implementing Classes:

AbstractFileSystem

Deprecated.

Use AbstractFileSystem based implementations instead. Do not extend FileSystem directly as it will be removed in the next major release. Only AbstractFile based implementations will be supported.

@Deprecated
public interface FileSystem

Provides native file system access for the built in SFTP server. Your server may implement the methods here to provide file system support. This is an optional feature since the server is preconfigured to use the VirtualFileSystem.

The SFTP protocol represents file names as strings. File names are assumed to use the slash ('/') character as a directory separator.

File names starting with a slash are "absolute", and are relative to the root of the file system. Names starting with any other character are relative to the user's default directory (home directory). It should noted that Windows style paths ARE NOT supported by the Virtual file system. Any path not starting with / are relative to the users home directory.

Implementations SHOULD interpret a path name component ".." as referring to the parent directory, and "." as referring to the current directory. If the implementation limits access to certain parts of the file system, it must be extra careful in parsing file names when enforcing such restrictions. There have been numerous reported security bugs where a ".." in a path name has allowed access outside the intended area.

An empty path name is valid, and it refers to the user's default directory (usually the user's home directory).

All file paths input and output from the provider must adhere to this format; conversion to a native file system is the responsibility of your own file system provider.
