I'd like to propose the additions:
NEW CLASS: java.lang.Folder
UPDATE: java.lang.File
These classes encapsulate the details of a given
file and directory within the file system where a Java
APPLICATION runs. The current version of java.io.File
is not adequate because it doesn't provide file
attributes, last modification date and time, etc.
I have a version of these classes written in C++ that
used in production under DOS, Windows, NT, and UNIX, and
NetWare. The source for the C++ "Directory" (i.e.
"Folder") header file will be presented below.
If you want, I wouldn't mind writing these class
updates as beans.
Thanks!
