Pro Java 7 NIO.2 addresses the three primary elements that offer new input/output (I/O) APIs in Java 7, giving you the skills to write robust, scalable Java applications: * An extensive file I/O API system addresses feature requests that developers have sought since the inception of the JDK * A socket channel API addresses multicasting, socket binding associated with channels, and related issues * An asynchronous I/O API enables mapping to I/O facilities, completion ports, and various I/O event port mechanisms to enhance scalability NIO.2 for the Java platform, known as JSR 203, is a major feature of the new Java JDK 7 under the leadership of Alan Bateman as an OpenJDK project. Take advantage of these exciting new developments with Pro Java 7 NIO.2. What you'll learn * How to carry out Path class operations * How to get/set file metadata through the java.nio file attribute API (including POSIX) * How to manage symbolic and hard links (including create, delete, and find target) * How to deal with files and directories through the new java.nio.file.Files API * How to use the FileVisitor API to develop file recursive operations * How to explore the Watch Service API and file change notification * How to use the new SeekableByteChannel API for Random Access File * How to develop blocking/non-blocking socket-based applications * How to explore the jewel of NIO.2: the Asynchronous Channel API * How to use the Zip File System Provider and write a custom file system provider * How to refactor java.io.File code Who this book is for This book is for experienced Java programmers new to Java 7 and those with some experience with Java 7. Table of Contents * Working with the Path Class * Metadate File Attributes * Symbolic Links * Files and Directories * The FileVisitor Class: Recursive Operations * Watch Service API * Two Security Models * SPI Package * Mapping java.io.file Functionality to java.nio.file * General Methods
