Ralph Goers commented on VFS-279:
---------------------------------

Thanks.  What I'm concerned about is that doReplicateFile takes a FileObject. 
From what I can tell, it is possible to call this method and pass in a 
ZipFileObject or HttpFileObject, neither of which extend LocalFileObject and 
aren't DecoratedFileObjects? If so, should it work or is throwing a 
ClassCastException the correct behavior?

I assume you ran into this and I assume it must have been with a 
DecoratedFileObject? I'm interested in that use case as I wonder why it is 
desired to replicate the underlying FileObject and not the DecoratedFileObject.

> When using OnCall caching in the file system, there is a ClassCastException 
> in the LocalFileSystem#doReplicateFile function.
> To fix the issue, I replaced :
>         final LocalFile localFile = (LocalFile) fileObject;
> by 
>         final LocalFile localFile = (LocalFile) 
> FileObjectUtils.getAbstractFileObject(fileObject);
