/**
 * 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. * * @see java.io.FileInputStream#getChannel() * @see java.io.FileOutputStream#getChannel() * @see java.io.RandomAccessFile#getChannel() * * @author Mark Reinhold * @author Mike McCloskey * @author JSR-51 Expert Group * @since 1.4 */ public abstract class FileChannel extends AbstractInterruptibleChannel implements SeekableByteChannel, GatheringByteChannel, ScatteringByteChannel { /** * Initializes a new instance of this class. */ protected FileChannel() { } /** * Opens or creates a file, returning a file channel to access the file. * *

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 * integrity).
* *

An implementation may also support additional options. * *

The {@code attrs} parameter is an optional array of file {@link * FileAttribute file-attributes} to set atomically when creating the file. * *
