I've been a long term user of Apache Commons VFS which supports WebDAV, Zip, FTP, SFTP and other file systems. It also has support for nested file systems which allows a user to refer to a file within a zip file like this: "tar:gz:http://anyhost/dir/mytar.tar.gz!/mytar.tar!/path/in/tar/README.txt";
I was wondering if anyone had played with the NIO2 file system capabilities in Java 7 yet? As I understand it, the original goal of the project was to provide better file system support and a way to plugin new file systems. Was that goal ever achieved? If so, what file systems will be supported in Java 7? Will nested file systems be supported?
