Method Detail

getInstance

public static FileIOExtras getInstance()

Returns the singleton instance of the "IO extras" for this platform.

Returns:

The instance, or null if this platform does not support this feature.

moveToRecycleBin

public boolean moveToRecycleBin(java.awt.Window parent,
                                java.io.File[] files,
                                boolean confirmation,
                                boolean silent)

Moves the specified files and/or directories to the recycle bin.

Parameters:

parent - The parent window for the dialog. This may be null.

files - An array of files/directories to move.

confirmation - Whether a "Are you sure you want to send XXX to the Trash?" should be displayed to the user.

silent - If this is true, no progress dialog is displayed to the user. If this is false, then a progress bar is displayed as the file(s) are being deleted. On Windows, this parameter appears to only be honored if confirmation is true.

Returns:

Whether the operation was successful. Note that this method returns true even if the user manually aborts the delete operation in the UI. This method only fails if a serious internal error occurs (out of memory, etc.).

moveToRecycleBin

public abstract boolean moveToRecycleBin(java.awt.Window parent,
                                         java.lang.String[] files,
                                         boolean confirmation,
                                         boolean silent)

Moves the specified file to the recycle bin.

Parameters:

parent - The parent window for the dialog. This may be null.

files - The names of the files to move. These should be absolute paths.

confirmation - Whether a "Are you sure you want to send XXX to the Trash?" should be displayed to the user.

silent - If this is true, no progress dialog is displayed to the user. If this is false, then a progress bar is displayed as the file(s) are being deleted. On Windows, this parameter appears to only be honored if confirmation is true.

Returns:

Whether the operation was successful. Note that this method returns true even if the user manually aborts the delete operation in the UI. This method only fails if a serious internal error occurs (out of memory, etc.).
