Class AbstractFileResolvingResource

java.lang.Object

org.springframework.core.io.AbstractResource

org.springframework.core.io.AbstractFileResolvingResource

All Implemented Interfaces:

InputStreamSource, Resource

Direct Known Subclasses:

ClassPathResource, UrlResource

public abstract class AbstractFileResolvingResource
extends AbstractResource

Abstract base class for resources which resolve URLs into File references, such as UrlResource or ClassPathResource.

Detects the "file" protocol as well as the JBoss "vfs" protocol in URLs, resolving file system references accordingly.

Since:

3.0

Methods

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
long	contentLength() This implementation reads the entire InputStream to calculate the content length.
boolean	exists() This implementation checks whether a File can be opened, falling back to whether an InputStream can be opened.
File	getFile() This implementation returns a File reference for the underlying class path resource, provided that it refers to a file in the file system.
protected File	getFile(URI uri) This implementation returns a File reference for the underlying class path resource, provided that it refers to a file in the file system.
protected File	getFileForLastModifiedCheck() This implementation determines the underlying File (or jar file, in case of a resource in a jar/zip).
boolean	isReadable() This implementation always returns true.
long	lastModified() This implementation checks the timestamp of the underlying File, if available.

Method Detail

getFile

public File getFile()
             throws IOException

This implementation returns a File reference for the underlying class path resource, provided that it refers to a file in the file system.

Specified by:

getFile in interface Resource

Overrides:

getFile in class AbstractResource

Throws:

IOException - if the resource cannot be resolved as absolute file path, i.e. if the resource is not available in a file system

See Also:

ResourceUtils.getFile(java.net.URL, String)

getFileForLastModifiedCheck

protected File getFileForLastModifiedCheck()
                                    throws IOException

This implementation determines the underlying File (or jar file, in case of a resource in a jar/zip).

Overrides:

getFileForLastModifiedCheck in class AbstractResource

Returns:

the File to use for timestamp checking (never null)

Throws:

IOException - if the resource cannot be resolved as absolute file path, i.e. if the resource is not available in a file system

getFile

protected File getFile(URI uri)
                throws IOException

This implementation returns a File reference for the underlying class path resource, provided that it refers to a file in the file system.

Throws:

IOException

See Also:

ResourceUtils.getFile(java.net.URI, String)

exists

public boolean exists()

Description copied from class: AbstractResource

This implementation checks whether a File can be opened, falling back to whether an InputStream can be opened. This will cover both directories and content resources.

Specified by:

exists in interface Resource

Overrides:

exists in class AbstractResource

isReadable

public boolean isReadable()

Description copied from class: AbstractResource

This implementation always returns true.

Specified by:

isReadable in interface Resource

Overrides:

isReadable in class AbstractResource

See Also:

InputStreamSource.getInputStream()

contentLength

public long contentLength()
                   throws IOException

Description copied from class: AbstractResource

This implementation reads the entire InputStream to calculate the content length. Subclasses will almost always be able to provide a more optimal version of this, e.g. checking a File length.

Specified by:

contentLength in interface Resource

Overrides:

contentLength in class AbstractResource

Throws:

IOException - if the resource cannot be resolved (in the file system or as some other known physical resource type)

See Also:

InputStreamSource.getInputStream()

lastModified

public long lastModified()
                  throws IOException

Description copied from class: AbstractResource

This implementation checks the timestamp of the underlying File, if available.

Specified by:

lastModified in interface Resource

Overrides:

lastModified in class AbstractResource

Throws:

IOException - if the resource cannot be resolved (in the file system or as some other known physical resource type)

AbstractResource.getFileForLastModifiedCheck()
