getOutputStream method of the org.apache.jackrabbit.core.fs.mem.MemoryFileSystem question

[Denis Linine]

Hello,

I had a look at the getOutputStream method of the 
org.apache.jackrabbit.core.fs.mem.MemoryFileSystem class, its code is 
presented below:

public OutputStream getOutputStream(String filePath) throws 
FileSystemException
{          
       String folderPath = filePath;
       if (filePath.lastIndexOf(FileSystem.SEPARATOR) > 0)
       {
           folderPath = filePath.substring(0, filePath.lastIndexOf("/"));
       }
       else
       {
           folderPath = "/";
       }
       assertIsFolder(folderPath);

       final MemoryFile file = new MemoryFile();
       entries.put(filePath, file);

       return new FilterOutputStream(new ByteArrayOutputStream())
       {
           public void close() throws IOException
           {
               out.close();
               file.setData(((ByteArrayOutputStream) out).toByteArray());
           }
       };
   }

I might be wrong, but it seems that if the filePath passed points to an 
existing folder and not to a file - the folder will be replaced with a 
newly created file. Unfortunately, at the moment being I do not have JR 
build environment set up to test practically whether this is really the 
case. Might be some check whether the path passed really points to a 
file should be added.

Best regards
