[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TRANSACTION-9?page=comments#action_12421661 ] Oliver Zeigermann commented on TRANSACTION-9: ---------------------------------------------
That looks really interesting. Not quite sure what to do with it, though. I would like to check it into something like a proposal section or a scratchboard for public inspection. What do you people think? > [transaction] Add full file management capabilities to the FileResourceManager > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: TRANSACTION-9 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TRANSACTION-9 > Project: Commons Transaction > Issue Type: Improvement > Environment: Operating System: All > Platform: All > Reporter: Peter Fassev > Priority: Minor > Attachments: filemanager.zip > > > Hi, > As stated in the doc the FileResourceManager is: > "A resource manager for streamable objects stored in a file system" > I agree, that this is a resource manager, but it could be easily extended, to > support a full file management system. It will be very helpful to have > additional methods like renameResource(), getResourceSize(), > getResourceTime(), > setResourceTime() etc. This are common file operations, which should be > managed > by the FileResourceManager. > Further it will be very helpful to have (real) support for resource > collections > (folders). It will be necessary to distinguish between single resources > (files) > and collections (folders). > Together, this features will enable a transactional access to any file based > resources - for instance a document repository. > Are there plans for such extensions and if not, will they actually fit in the > goals of the transaction library? > If not, please open the underlying structure, like the inner class > TransactionContext, in order to add extensions the file management. For > instance, it will be good to have a separate factory method, which creates > the > context. > If you are interested in this proposal, I am ready to contribute to this > project. I consider myself as an experienced java developer and I will be > glad > to help you. > Best regards > Peter Fassev -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
