THIS IS A TEST INSTANCE. ALL YOUR CHANGES WILL BE LOST!!!!
...
this would require it to
- copy the archive locally 2.
- apply the change
- 3. repack the archive
- 4. copy the archive back to its place
...
- pop, imap (useable for emails)
- mime (for the email itself - pretty much like an archive)
Consider this url:
No Format |
---|
zip:mime:imap://user@mailserver/INBOX/folders/newMail.mime!/attachment1.zip!/zipentry.txt |
...
- generic XML
- ant (only a variant of XML? Cant we just set a dtd or scheme using some sort of configurationOption ?)
- java structure (by class, by source?)

Todos
The following is a list of items that need to be completed. Contributions are welcome!
Release 1.1
- moveTo should handle a directory move if it moves from a different filesystem.
Open
- More documentation (status, file naming etc).
- Fix the TODO items
- Add more providers:
- rsync
- subversion
- nfs
- cvs
- jdbc filesystem
- xml filesystem
- jndi
- imap
- local mirror
- spidering http
- ...
- JNDI integration.
- Formalise the provider API.
- WebDAV Provider:
- Add plain http support, and auto-detect dav resources.
- Add set last-modified.
- HTTPS
- Zip/Jar Provider:
- Extract an AbstractLayerFileSystem out of ZipFileSystem.
- Track changes to the parent layer. Eg when the parent layer is deleted, mark all the files in the fs as 'does-not-exist'.
- Add support for writing to zip/jar files.
- URL Provider:
- Support attributes.
- HTTP Provider:
- Support attributes.
- HTTPS support.
- The local disk caching mechanism also needs more work. Needs to check last-modified time. Replicator needs to be more configurable.
- Add persistent replicator.
- Finish support for junctions: Make ancestors of a junction point visible, fire events when junction is added or removed, tests.
- Add support for federation (ie transparently crossing file system boundaries, such as drilling down into the contents of a Jar file).
- Add an equivalent of the fileScanner Jelly tag.
- Add an equivalent of Ant path, fileset, dirset, filelist, etc. Ideally, these can be abstracted into a single data type.
- Allow selectors, name mappers, and filters to be specified for the Ant tasks.
- Add capabilities to FileObject.
- Attributes and attribute schema.
- Handle file canonicalisation better (for cases like case-insensitive file systems, symbolic links, name mangling, etc).
- Add more selectors: XPath, Ant style, regular expression.
- Add adaptor (NodePointerFactory?) for use with JXpath.
- Add content-changed, attribute-changed, and move events to FileListener. Maybe split into structure and content listeners.
- Get/set the file permissions.
- Automatically checksum and/or verify remote files.
- Look at adding native code for fine-grained control over permissions, file monitoring, faster moves, etc. Must be optional - the thing should still build and run without the native code.
Library upgrades
The following describes changes in upgrades dependencies which need to be considered:
webdavlib 2.1
- resource.listWebdavResources() do no longer list directories?
Figure out what to do
