sealed class	HttpFileSystem	extends	FileSystem
		implements	IPleaseIncludeInBinaryThanks

Public / Constants

Instance

Singleton instance of HttpFileSystem.

public static readonly field	Instance
type	HttpFileSystem

Public / Attributes

CanCreate

Is this object capable of creating new resources?

public virtual property	CanCreate { get }
type	bool
value		true if this object can create new resources, false if it cannot.
inherited	FileSystem.CanCreate

CanDelete

Is this object capable of deleting files?

public virtual property	CanDelete { get }
type	bool
value		true if this object can delete resources, false if it cannot.
inherited	FileSystem.CanDelete

CanOpen

Is this object capable of opening existing files?

public virtual property	CanOpen { get }
type	bool
value		true if this object can open existing resources, false if it cannot.
inherited	FileSystem.CanOpen

Directory

Gets or sets the current directory of this filesystem.

public override property	Directory { get set }
type	Path
value	[not-null]	The current directory.
implements	FileSystem.Directory

Remarks:

The returned directory will always be in canonical form (see Canonical ).

Http

The ISimpleHttp object that is used by this HttpFileSystem.

[OwnerValue]
public property	Http { get set }
type	ISimpleHttp
value	[not-null]	The ISimpleHttp object.

Remarks:

Only newly created IFile objects (see FileNew) will use the new ISimpleHttp object.

LifecycleState

Returns the lifecycle state of this object.

public virtual property	LifecycleState { get }
type	LifecycleState
value		The lifecycle state.
inherited	Disposable.LifecycleState

Roots

Returns the root nodes of this filesystem.

public override property	Roots { get }
type	Path[]
value	[not-null]	The root nodes.
implements	FileSystem.Roots

Public / Methods

AcquireTry

Acquires a strong reference to this disposable object.

[OwnerReturn, ThreadSafe]
public method	AcquireTry ()
type	IDisposable
returns			this if a new strong reference has been acquired, null if this object is already being disposed.
inherited	Disposable.AcquireTry

Remarks:

The object will not be actually disposed by calls to Dispose when there is at least one strong reference left. Code that calls the AcquireTry method is responsible for calling the Dispose method accordingly.

This method is not intended to be used in performance-critical code. It should only be used to high-level resource management.

DirectoryCreate

Creates the given directory.

public override method	DirectoryCreate (Path directoryPath)
params	directoryPath	[not-null]	The directory path.
implements	FileSystem.DirectoryCreate

Remarks:

If the given directory already exists, the method returns silently.

The method will create all ancestor directories if necessary.

DirectoryDelete

Tries to deletes the given directory if it exists.

public override method	DirectoryDelete (Path directoryPath)
type	bool
params	directoryPath	[not-null]	The path.
returns			true if the directory has been deleted, false if it not.
implements	FileSystem.DirectoryDelete

Remarks:

A directory can only be deleted if it is empty.

DirectoryExists

Checks if the given directory exists.

public override method	DirectoryExists (Path directoryPath)
type	bool
params	directoryPath		The directory path.
returns			true if the directory exists, false if not.
implements	FileSystem.DirectoryExists

DirectoryFreeSpace

Returns the amount of storage space that is available in the given directory.

public virtual method	DirectoryFreeSpace (Path directoryPath)
type	int64
params	directoryPath	[not-null]	The directory path.
returns		[>=0]	The available storage space, in bytes.
inherited	FileSystem.DirectoryFreeSpace

Remarks:

If the given directory does not exist, the storage space for the nearest existing ancestor directory is reported.

Dispose

Releases all resources held by this object if there are no more strong references to it, decrements the reference counter by one otherwise.

[Dispose, OwnerThis, ThreadSafe]
public method	Dispose ()
inherited	Disposable.Dispose

Remarks:

The Dispose method silently returns if the object has already been disposed.

FileDelete

Permanently deletes a binary object.

public override method	FileDelete (Path filePath)
type	bool
params	filePath	[not-null]	The file path.
returns			true if the binary object has been deleted, false if it did not exist.
implements	FileSystem.FileDelete

FileExists

Checks if a binary object exists under the given path.

public override method	FileExists (Path filePath)
type	bool
params	filePath		The path.
returns			true if filePath points to an existing binary object, false if not.
implements	FileSystem.FileExists

FileNew

Creates a new instance of IFile.

[OwnerReturn]
public override method	FileNew (Path filePath, FileFlags flags)
type	IFile
params	filePath	[not-null]	The file path.
	flags		The file flags (creation disposition and behaviour flags).
returns		[not-null]	The created binary object.
implements	FileSystem.FileNew

Remarks:

The PathInfo property of the returned IFile will always be in canonical form (see Canonical).

ListDirectories

Lists all subdirectories in the given directory.

public override method	ListDirectories (Path directoryPath, string pattern = null)
type	Path[]
params	directoryPath	[not-null]	The directory.
	pattern		Optional name pattern using '?' and '*' wildcards. Defaults to null.
returns		[not-null]	The list of canonical directory paths. The returned list order has no particular sort order.
implements	FileSystem.ListDirectories

Remarks:

The returned pathnames are absolute and fully resolved.

See also:

Path.Canonical

ListFiles

Lists all files in the given directory.

public override method	ListFiles (Path directoryPath, string pattern = null)
type	Path[]
params	directoryPath	[not-null]	The directory.
	pattern		Optional name pattern using '?' and '*' wildcards. Defaults to null.
returns		[not-null]	The list of canonical file paths. The returned list order has no particular sort order.
implements	FileSystem.ListFiles

Remarks:

The returned pathnames are absolute and fully resolved.

See also:

Path.Canonical

OwnsPath

Does this filesystem own the given path?

public override method	OwnsPath (Path path)
type	bool
params	path	[not-null]	The path object.
returns			true if this filesystem should be used for the given path, false if not.
implements	FileSystem.OwnsPath

PleaseIncludeInBinaryThanks

This is a no-op method that forces the compiler / linker to include this type in the resulting binary.

public method	PleaseIncludeInBinaryThanks ()
implements	IPleaseIncludeInBinaryThanks.PleaseIncludeInBinaryThanks

Remarks:

Calling this stub method makes sure that all lazy constructor calls have been made.

To initialize everything, an application needs to call this method on its root module(s) (see TinmanModule), followed by a call to PleaseIncludeInBinaryThanksAll.
