> For files, there are INodeFile, INodeFileUnderConstruction, 
> INodeFileWithSnapshot and INodeFileUnderConstructionWithSnapshot for 
> representing whether a file is under construction or whether it is in some 
> snapshot.  The following are two major problems of the current approach:
> - Java class does not support multiple inheritances so that 
> INodeFileUnderConstructionWithSnapshot cannot extend both 
> INodeFileUnderConstruction and INodeFileWithSnapshot.
> - The number of classes is exponential to the number of features.  Currently, 
> there are only two features, UnderConstruction and WithSnapshot.  The number 
> of classes is 2^2 = 4.  It is hard to add one more feature since the number 
> of classes will become 2^3 = 8.
> As a first step, we implement an Under-Construction feature to replace 
> INodeFileUnderConstruction and INodeFileUnderConstructionWithSnapshot in this 
> jira.
