Howdy all,
I'm trying to call the createFile method from the Path class specified
here:
http://java.sun.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/nio/file/Path.html
The following text:
The following code snippet creates a file with default attributes:
Path file = ...;
try {
file.createFile(); //Create the empty file with default
permissions, etc.
} catch (FileAlreadyExists x) {
System.err.format("file named %s already exists%n", file);
} catch (IOException x) {
//Some other sort of failure, such as permissions.
System.err.format("createFile error: %s%n", x);
}
from:
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/essential/io/file.html
describes how you can call createFile without any parameters even
though the method signature in the api only has one version of the
method taking a FileAttribute object.
When I try and call createFile from clojure:
(.createFile path)
I get an exception that there is no field named createFile. This makes
perfect sense to me since there is no public method with an explicit
signature taking zero args, so clojure is looking for a field.
However, based on a test program in java and the tutorial text, the
method works great without any parameters. Is there any way to force
clojure to try and call the method? Passing nil as an argument gets a
null pointer exception.
I could create a FileAttribute object easily if I was running on a
Posix filesystem, but I'd like this to work on DOS as well.
Thanks!
Carl
