Re: jclouds and JDK7 NIO.2 FileSystemProvider
Ah, so I think you've got it backwards. I'm looking for a custom java.nio.file.spi.FileSystemProvider over the jclouds BlobStore api -- not a jclouds BlobStore over the NIO2 FileSystem. http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/technotes/guides/io/fsp/filesystemprovider.html Kevin On Tue, Aug 13, 2013 at 11:27 AM, Andrew Gaul wrote: > We document the filesystem blobstore here: > > http://jclouds.incubator.apache.org/documentation/quickstart/filesystem/ > http://jclouds.incubator.apache.org/documentation/userguide/filesystem-provider/ > > The filesystem blobstore should operate exactly like regular blobstores. > jclouds also offers a transient blobstore which does not persist to > disk.

Re: jclouds and JDK7 NIO.2 FileSystemProvider
We document the filesystem blobstore here: http://jclouds.incubator.apache.org/documentation/quickstart/filesystem/ http://jclouds.incubator.apache.org/documentation/userguide/filesystem-provider/ The filesystem blobstore should operate exactly like regular blobstores. jclouds also offers a transient blobstore which does not persist to disk. I find both useful for testing. On Tue, Aug 13, 2013 at 10:05:00AM -0700, Kevin Krouse wrote: > I haven't tried the JDK6-based FileSystemProvider. I didn't know it > was available, actually.

Re: jclouds and JDK7 NIO.2 FileSystemProvider
I haven't tried the JDK6-based FileSystemProvider. I didn't know it was available, actually. Is there documentation? Sure, I can take a look to see what implementing a JDK7 FileProvider would entail if others are also interested.

I have noticed that it scales poorly with large directories which NIO.2 would help address. jclouds does not offer support for this today, in part because we maintain compatibility with JDK6. However, we could host a JDK7-enhanced provider in labs if the community found this useful. Would you like to take up this task? -- Andrew Gaul http://gaul.org/
