| [platform-core-dev] [Fwd: EFS Stumbling Block] |
Hi Platform Core Developers, Reid is a Google SoC student and working on a WEBDAV EFS provider. He has made good progress so far but came across an issue while implementing it. I couldn't answer this myself thus I'm posting it to the list. --Gunnar -------- Original Message -------- Subject: EFS Stumbling Block Date: Thu, 05 Jul 2007 22:55:05 -0600 From: reid holmes <rtholmes@xxxxxxxxx> To: Gunnar Wagenknecht <gunnar@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Hi Gunnar, I'm having a bit of a problem. I have no problem reading files and directories through my EFS implementation, and I can modify files no problem. I am having issues with *creating* files and directories. When you create a file or directory using the Eclipse UI you end up going through FileSystemResourceManager.getStore(IResource). The IResource is the name of the file or directory you want to create. After this point however, the IResource gets changed into an IPath (FileStoreRoot.createStore(IPath)). This is a means that within EFS I cannot determine if the resource being created is a file or a directory from its IPath. This is a problem because files and directories are created differently in WebDAV and without being able to tell which is being created I don't know what to do. What would you advise in this situation? Thanks, --reid holmes -- Gunnar Wagenknecht gunnar@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://wagenknecht.org/
