Peter Fassev commented on TRANSACTION-9: ---------------------------------------- Yes, I think it is still a valid request. In the mean time I have done some effort to extended the FileResourceManager, including the TranscationContext. Actually many of the functionality has been overwritten. It supports now transaction secure operations on files and directories including creating, renaming, moving and deleting. Please note, that there is still some job to do, mainly to clean the code and to extend the tests and to write a documentation, but for now it works. At least, it can be used as an example. If you are interested in it, please let me know. > [transaction] Add full file management capabilities to the FileResourceManager > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: TRANSACTION-9 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TRANSACTION-9 > Project: Commons Transaction > Type: Improvement > Environment: Operating System: All > Platform: All > Reporter: Peter Fassev > Priority: Minor > > Hi, > As stated in the doc the FileResourceManager is: > "A resource manager for streamable objects stored in a file system" > I agree, that this is a resource manager, but it could be easily extended, to > support a full file management system. It will be very helpful to have > additional methods like renameResource(), getResourceSize(), > getResourceTime(), > setResourceTime() etc. This are common file operations, which should be > managed > by the FileResourceManager. > Further it will be very helpful to have (real) support for resource > collections > (folders).
