synchronizeFolders

public static void synchronizeFolders(java.io.File src,

See Also:

synchronizeFolders(File, File, FileFilter), compareFiles(File, File)

synchronizeFolders

public static void synchronizeFolders(java.io.File src,
                                      java.io.File dest,

See Also:

compareFiles(File, File)

isResourceExists

public static boolean isResourceExists(java.net.URL url)

Checks if resource exist and can be opened.

Parameters:

url - absolute URL which points to a resource to be checked

Returns:

true if given URL points to an existing resource

getResourceInputStream

public static java.io.InputStream getResourceInputStream(java.net.URL url)
                                                  throws java.io.IOException

Opens input stream for given resource. This method behaves differently for different URL types:

• for local files it returns buffered file input stream;
• for local JAR files it reads resource content into memory buffer and returns byte array input stream that wraps those buffer (this prevents locking JAR file);
• for common URL's this method simply opens stream to that URL using standard URL API.

It is not recommended to use this method for big resources within JAR files.

Parameters:

url - resource URL

Returns:

input stream for given resource

Throws:

java.io.IOException - if any I/O error has occurred

url2file

public static java.io.File url2file(java.net.URL url)

Utility method to convert local URL to a File object.

Parameters:

url - an URL

Returns:

file object for given URL or null if URL is not local

file2url

public static java.net.URL file2url(java.io.File file)
                             throws java.net.MalformedURLException

Utility method to convert a File object to a local URL.

Parameters:

file - a file object

Returns:

absolute URL that points to the given file

Throws:

java.net.MalformedURLException - if file can't be represented as URL for some reason
