Re: [VFS] Native File System Integration

2005-08-03 Thread Mario Ivankovits

Hi!
Is there any Java based solution for mounting any file resourse (cifs, 
zip, etc.) to a drive on Windows and to any where in UNIX?
Not that I know one. The question here is if there is a virtual 
filesystem (e.g. zip, ftp, ...) which is able to handle it.



Is there any Java and  Commons
VFS based solution for mounting Commons VFS resource to the  native file
system? If this could be done than all the applications  using Commons VFS
directly benefit from native file system integration.
 
You mean something like mounting ftp://host; to drive letter f: or to 
unix partition /mnt/ftpconn?
For Linux there is LUFS http://lufs.sourceforge.net/lufs/fs.html - looks 
not very active, but the approach is the same.


Someone needs to write a vritual filesystem driver for windows and one 
for e.g. linux which dispatches access to a configured directory to a 
running commons-vfs daemon.

While this sounds cool, it is way too much work to do - at least for me.
And there are for sure better ways to handle it, e.g. LUFS allows to use 
Gnome-VFS - so virtually every gnome filesystem implmementation is 
available to mount - ok, this is what the documentation says, never 
tried it.

Hi,

Is there any Java based solution for mounting any file resourse (cifs, 
zip, etc.) to a drive on Windows and to any where in UNIX? I know, this 
is not directly related to Commons VFS. One more question that is 
related to Commons VFS and my previos question is: Is there any Java and 
Commons VFS based solution for mounting Commons VFS resource to the 
native file system? If this could be done than all the applications 
using Commons VFS directly benefit from native file system integration.
