Method Details

• equals

  public abstract boolean equals(Object obj)

  Overrides:

  equals in class Object

• hashCode

  public abstract int hashCode()

  Overrides:

  hashCode in class Object

• register

  public abstract WatchKey register(WatchService watcher, WatchEvent.Kind<?>... events) throws IOException

  Description copied from interface: Watchable

  Registers the file system path (a directory) with the given WatchService and provides a WatchKey as a handle for that registration. Equivalent to calling register(watcher, events, new WatchEvent.Modifier[0]);

  Specified by:

  register in interface Watchable

  Throws:

  IOException

  • register(name.pachler.nio.file.WatchService, name.pachler.nio.file.WatchEvent.Kind<?>[], name.pachler.nio.file.WatchEvent.Modifier[])

• register

  public abstract WatchKey register(WatchService watcher, WatchEvent.Kind<?>[] events, WatchEvent.Modifier... modifiers) throws IOException

  Description copied from interface: Watchable

  Registers the file system path (a directory) with the given WatchServiceand provides a WatchKey as a handle for that registration. The events and modifier lists determine the events that the WatchService will report.
  If a path instance is passed in that represents the same file system object that has been specified in a previous call to this method with the same WatchService, the same WatchKey will be returned. In this case, the WatchKey's watch settings are altered to match the new event and modifier lists. Note that such changes may result in StandardWatchEventKind.OVERFLOW events to be reported on some platforms.
  Not all event kinds and modifiers defined in StandardWatchEventKind, ExtendedWatchEventKind and ExtendedWatchEventModifier may be supported on a target platform (typically though, in this implementation, all event kinds defined in StandardWatchEventKind are always supported).

  Specified by:

  register in interface Watchable

  Parameters:

  watcher - a valid WatchService instance.

  events - The events to register for. The event kinds defined in StandardWatchEventKindand ExtendedWatchEventKind define valid event kinds that can be passed in here. Not that not all event kinds may be supported on a given platform, so see the documentation of a specific event kind.

  modifiers - The event modifiers to use when registering.

  invalid reference

  WatchEvent$Modifier

  s define special behaviour that's expected from the WatchService. Note that some event modifiers may not be supported on a given platform; see the specific modifier for details.

  Returns:

  a new WatchKey that represents the registration.

  Throws:

  IOException
