Helper class for performing atomic operations on a file by creating a backup file until a write has successfully completed. If you need this on older versions of the platform you can use AtomicFile in the v4 support library.

Atomic file guarantees file integrity by ensuring that a file has been completely written and sync'd to disk before removing its backup. As long as the backup file exists, the original file is considered to be invalid (left over from a previous attempt to write the file).

Atomic file does not confer any file locking semantics. Do not use this class when the file may be accessed or modified concurrently by multiple threads or processes. The caller is responsible for ensuring appropriate mutual exclusion invariants whenever it accesses the file.

Start a new write operation on the file. This returns a FileOutputStream to which you can write the new file data. The existing file is replaced with the new data. You must not directly close the given FileOutputStream; instead call either finishWrite(FileOutputStream) or failWrite(FileOutputStream).

Note that if another thread is currently performing a write, this will simply replace whatever that thread is writing with the new file being written by this thread, and when the other thread finishes the write the new write operation will no longer be safe (or will be lost). You must do your own threading protection for access to AtomicFile.

Open the atomic file for reading. If there previously was an incomplete write, this will roll back to the last good data before opening for read. You should call close() on the FileInputStream when you are done reading from it.

Note that if another thread is currently performing a write, this will incorrectly consider it to be in the state of a bad write and roll back, causing the new data currently being written to be dropped. You must do your own threading protection for access to AtomicFile.
