/**
* A channel for reading, writing, mapping, and manipulating a file.
*
* A file channel is a {@link SeekableByteChannel} that is connected to
* a file. It has a current position within its file which can
* be both {@link #position() queried} and {@link #position(long)
* modified}. The file itself contains a variable-length sequence
* of bytes that can be read and written and whose current {@link #size
* size} can be queried. The size of the file increases
* when bytes are written beyond its current size; the size of the file
* decreases when it is {@link #truncate truncated}. The
* file may also have some associated metadata such as access
* permissions, content type, and last-modification time; this class does not
* define methods for metadata access.
*
*
In addition to the familiar read, write, and close operations of byte
* channels, this class defines the following file-specific operations:
*
*
*
* Bytes may be {@link #read(ByteBuffer, long) read} or
* {@link #write(ByteBuffer, long) written} at an absolute
* position in a file in a way that does not affect the channel's current
* position.
*
* A region of a file may be {@link #map mapped}
* directly into memory; for large files this is often much more efficient
* than invoking the usual read or write methods.
*
*
* Updates made to a file may be {@link #force forced
* out} to the underlying storage device, ensuring that data are not
* lost in the event of a system crash.
*
* Bytes can be transferred from a file {@link #transferTo to
* some other channel}, and {@link #transferFrom vice
* versa}, in a way that can be optimized by many operating systems
* into a very fast transfer directly to or from the filesystem cache.
*
*
* A region of a file may be {@link FileLock locked}
* against access by other programs.
*
*
*
* File channels are safe for use by multiple concurrent threads. The
* {@link Channel#close close} method may be invoked at any time, as specified
* by the {@link Channel} interface. Only one operation that involves the
* channel's position or can change its file's size may be in progress at any
* given time; attempts to initiate a second such operation while the first is
* still in progress will block until the first operation completes. Other
* operations, in particular those that take an explicit position, may proceed
* concurrently; whether they in fact do so is dependent upon the underlying
* implementation and is therefore unspecified.
*
*
The view of a file provided by an instance of this class is guaranteed
* to be consistent with other views of the same file provided by other
* instances in the same program. The view provided by an instance of this
* class may or may not, however, be consistent with the views seen by other
* concurrently-running programs due to caching performed by the underlying
* operating system and delays induced by network-filesystem protocols. This
* is true regardless of the language in which these other programs are
* written, and whether they are running on the same machine or on some other
* machine. The exact nature of any such inconsistencies are system-dependent
* and are therefore unspecified.
*
*
A file channel is created by invoking one of the {@link #open open}
* methods defined by this class. A file channel can also be obtained from an
* existing {@link java.io.FileInputStream#getChannel FileInputStream}, {@link
* java.io.FileOutputStream#getChannel FileOutputStream}, or {@link
* java.io.RandomAccessFile#getChannel RandomAccessFile} object by invoking
* that object's getChannel method, which returns a file channel that
* is connected to the same underlying file. Where the file channel is obtained
* from an existing stream or random access file then the state of the file
* channel is intimately connected to that of the object whose getChannel
* method returned the channel. Changing the channel's position, whether
* explicitly or by reading or writing bytes, will change the file position of
* the originating object, and vice versa. Changing the file's length via the
* file channel will change the length seen via the originating object, and vice
* versa. Changing the file's content by writing bytes will change the content
* seen by the originating object, and vice versa.
*
*
At various points this class specifies that an
* instance that is "open for reading," "open for writing," or "open for
* reading and writing" is required. A channel obtained via the {@link
* java.io.FileInputStream#getChannel getChannel} method of a {@link
* java.io.FileInputStream} instance will be open for reading. A channel
* obtained via the {@link java.io.FileOutputStream#getChannel getChannel}
* method of a {@link java.io.FileOutputStream} instance will be open for
* writing. Finally, a channel obtained via the {@link
* java.io.RandomAccessFile#getChannel getChannel} method of a {@link
* java.io.RandomAccessFile} instance will be open for reading if the instance
* was created with mode "r" and will be open for reading and writing
* if the instance was created with mode "rw".
*
*
A file channel that is open for writing may be in
* append mode, for example if it was obtained from a file-output stream
* that was created by invoking the {@link
* java.io.FileOutputStream#FileOutputStream(java.io.File,boolean)
* FileOutputStream(File,boolean)} constructor and passing true for
* the second parameter. In this mode each invocation of a relative write
* operation first advances the position to the end of the file and then writes
* the requested data. Whether the advancement of the position and the writing
* of the data are done in a single atomic operation is system-dependent and
* therefore unspecified.

The {@code options} parameter determines how the file is opened.
* The {@link StandardOpenOption#READ READ} and {@link StandardOpenOption#WRITE
* WRITE} options determine if the file should be opened for reading and/or
* writing. If neither option (or the {@link StandardOpenOption#APPEND APPEND}
* option) is contained in the array then the file is opened for reading.
* By default reading or writing commences at the beginning of the file.
*
*
In the addition to {@code READ} and {@code WRITE}, the following
* options may be present:
*
*
* Option Description
*
* {@link StandardOpenOption#APPEND APPEND}
* If this option is present then the file is opened for writing and
* each invocation of the channel's {@code write} method first advances
* the position to the end of the file and then writes the requested
* data. Whether the advancement of the position and the writing of the
* data are done in a single atomic operation is system-dependent and
* therefore unspecified. This option may not be used in conjunction
* with the {@code READ} or {@code TRUNCATE_EXISTING} options.
*
*
* {@link StandardOpenOption#TRUNCATE_EXISTING TRUNCATE_EXISTING}
* If this option is present then the existing file is truncated to
* a size of 0 bytes. This option is ignored when the file is opened only
* for reading.
*
*
* {@link StandardOpenOption#CREATE_NEW CREATE_NEW}
* If this option is present then a new file is created, failing if
* the file already exists. When creating a file the check for the
* existence of the file and the creation of the file if it does not exist
* is atomic with respect to other file system operations. This option is
* ignored when the file is opened only for reading.
*
*
* {@link StandardOpenOption#CREATE CREATE}
* If this option is present then an existing file is opened if it
* exists, otherwise a new file is created. When creating a file the check
* for the existence of the file and the creation of the file if it does
* not exist is atomic with respect to other file system operations. This
* option is ignored if the {@code CREATE_NEW} option is also present or
* the file is opened only for reading.
*
*
* {@link StandardOpenOption#DELETE_ON_CLOSE DELETE_ON_CLOSE}
* When this option is present then the implementation makes a
* best effort attempt to delete the file when closed by the
* the {@link #close close} method. If the {@code close} method is not
* invoked then a best effort attempt is made to delete the file
* when the Java virtual machine terminates.
*
*
* {@link StandardOpenOption#SPARSE SPARSE}
* When creating a new file this option is a hint that the
* new file will be sparse. This option is ignored when not creating
* a new file.
*
*
* {@link StandardOpenOption#SYNC SYNC}
* Requires that every update to the file's content or metadata be
* written synchronously to the underlying storage device. (see Synchronized I/O file
* integrity).
*
*
* {@link StandardOpenOption#DSYNC DSYNC}
* Requires that every update to the file's content be written
* synchronously to the underlying storage device. (see Synchronized I/O file

/**
* Maps a region of this channel's file directly into memory.
*
* A region of a file may be mapped into memory in one of three modes:
*
*
*
*
* Read-only: Any attempt to modify the resulting buffer
* will cause a {@link java.nio.ReadOnlyBufferException} to be thrown.
* ({@link MapMode#READ_ONLY MapMode.READ_ONLY})
*
* Read/write: Changes made to the resulting buffer will
* eventually be propagated to the file; they may or may not be made
* visible to other programs that have mapped the same file. ({@link
* MapMode#READ_WRITE MapMode.READ_WRITE})
*
* Private: Changes made to the resulting buffer will not
* be propagated to the file and will not be visible to other programs
* that have mapped the same file; instead, they will cause private
* copies of the modified portions of the buffer to be created. ({@link
* MapMode#PRIVATE MapMode.PRIVATE})
*
*
*
* For a read-only mapping, this channel must have been opened for
* reading; for a read/write or private mapping, this channel must have
* been opened for both reading and writing.
*
*
The {@link MappedByteBuffer mapped byte buffer}
* returned by this method will have a position of zero and a limit and
* capacity of size; its mark will be undefined. The buffer and
* the mapping that it represents will remain valid until the buffer itself
* is garbage-collected.
*
*
A mapping, once established, is not dependent upon the file channel
* that was used to create it. Closing the channel, in particular, has no
* effect upon the validity of the mapping.
*
*
Many of the details of memory-mapped files are inherently dependent
* upon the underlying operating system and are therefore unspecified. The
* behavior of this method when the requested region is not completely
* contained within this channel's file is unspecified. Whether changes
* made to the content or size of the underlying file, by this program or
* another, are propagated to the buffer is unspecified. The rate at which
* changes to the buffer are propagated to the file is unspecified.
*
*
For most operating systems, mapping a file into memory is more
* expensive than reading or writing a few tens of kilobytes of data via
* the usual {@link #read read} and {@link #write write} methods. From the
* standpoint of performance it is generally only worth mapping relatively
* large files into memory.
*
* @param mode
* One of the constants {@link MapMode#READ_ONLY READ_ONLY}, {@link
* MapMode#READ_WRITE READ_WRITE}, or {@link MapMode#PRIVATE
* PRIVATE} defined in the {@link MapMode} class, according to
* whether the file is to be mapped read-only, read/write, or
* privately (copy-on-write), respectively
*
* @param position
* The position within the file at which the mapped region
* is to start; must be non-negative
*
* @param size
* The size of the region to be mapped; must be non-negative and
* no greater than {@link java.lang.Integer#MAX_VALUE}
*
* @return The mapped byte buffer
*
* @throws NonReadableChannelException
* If the mode is {@link MapMode#READ_ONLY READ_ONLY} but
* this channel was not opened for reading
*
* @throws NonWritableChannelException
* If the mode is {@link MapMode#READ_WRITE READ_WRITE} or
* {@link MapMode#PRIVATE PRIVATE} but this channel was not opened
* for both reading and writing
*
* @throws IllegalArgumentException
* If the preconditions on the parameters do not hold
*
* @throws IOException
* If some other I/O error occurs

If this channel is closed by another thread during an invocation of

* will be thrown immediately; the thread's interrupt status will not be
