FileStatus

public FileStatus(FileStatus other)
           throws IOException

Copy constructor.

Parameters:

other - FileStatus to copy

Throws:

IOException

Method Detail

getLen

public long getLen()

Get the length of this file, in bytes.

Returns:

the length of this file, in bytes.

isFile

public boolean isFile()

Is this a file?

Returns:

true if this is a file

isDirectory

public boolean isDirectory()

Is this a directory?

Returns:

true if this is a directory

isDir

@Deprecated
public boolean isDir()

Deprecated. Use isFile(), isDirectory(), and isSymlink() instead.

Old interface, instead use the explicit isFile(), isDirectory(), and isSymlink()

Returns:

true if this is a directory.

isSymlink

public boolean isSymlink()

Is this a symbolic link?

Returns:

true if this is a symbolic link

getBlockSize

public long getBlockSize()

Get the block size of the file.

Returns:

the number of bytes

getReplication

public short getReplication()

Get the replication factor of a file.

Returns:

the replication factor of a file.

getModificationTime

public long getModificationTime()

Get the modification time of the file.

Returns:

the modification time of file in milliseconds since January 1, 1970 UTC.

getAccessTime

public long getAccessTime()

Get the access time of the file.

Returns:

the access time of file in milliseconds since January 1, 1970 UTC.

getPermission

public FsPermission getPermission()

Get FsPermission associated with the file.

Returns:

permssion. If a filesystem does not have a notion of permissions or if permissions could not be determined, then default permissions equivalent of "rwxrwxrwx" is returned.

isEncrypted

public boolean isEncrypted()

Tell whether the underlying file or directory is encrypted or not.

Returns:

true if the underlying file is encrypted.

getOwner

public String getOwner()

Get the owner of the file.

Returns:

owner of the file. The string could be empty if there is no notion of owner of a file in a filesystem or if it could not be determined (rare).

getGroup

public String getGroup()

Get the group associated with the file.

Returns:

group for the file. The string could be empty if there is no notion of group of a file in a filesystem or if it could not be determined (rare).

getPath

public Path getPath()

setPath

public void setPath(Path p)

setPermission

protected void setPermission(FsPermission permission)

Sets permission.

Parameters:

permission - if permission is null, default value is set

setOwner

protected void setOwner(String owner)

Sets owner.

Parameters:

owner - if it is null, default value is set

setGroup

protected void setGroup(String group)

Sets group.

Parameters:

group - if it is null, default value is set

getSymlink

public Path getSymlink()
                throws IOException
