Method Details

setContents

void setContents(Path path,
 CharSequence contents)

Writes the given contents to the given path. It will create the file if it doesn't exist, and create folders for all parents if they don't exist. Implementors may decide to perform this method asynchronously. Clients should not rely on invocation timing.

Parameters:

path - the path to write the contents to

contents - the contents of the file

setContentsAsStream

void setContentsAsStream(Path path,
 InputStream source)

Sets the contents of this file to the bytes in the given input stream. The stream will be closed after the operation has finished. Implementors may decide to perform this method asynchronously. Clients should not rely on invocation timing.

Parameters:

path - the path to the file

source - an input stream containing the new contents of the file

mkdir

@Deprecated
void mkdir(Path path)

Deprecated.

This method will be removed in future versions. Methods setContents(org.eclipse.xtend.lib.macro.file.Path, java.lang.CharSequence) and setContentsAsStream(Path, InputStream) create folders for all parents if they don't exist.

Creates a directory for the given path and all its parents if necessary. Implementors may decide to perform this method asynchronously. Clients should not rely on invocation timing.

Parameters:

path - the path to the file

Since:

2.7

delete

void delete(Path path)

Deletes the file or folder the given path points to. If path points to a folder this method will also delete all its contents. Implementors may decide to perform this method asynchronously. Clients should not rely on invocation timing.

Parameters:

path -
