File manager based on java.io.File and java.nio.file.Path. A common way to obtain an instance of this class is using getStandardFileManager, for example: 
 JavaCompiler compiler = ToolProvider.getSystemJavaCompiler(); DiagnosticCollector<JavaFileObject> diagnostics = new DiagnosticCollector<JavaFileObject>(); StandardJavaFileManager fm = compiler.getStandardFileManager(diagnostics, null, null); 
 This file manager creates file objects representing regular files, zip file entries, or entries in similar file system based containers. Any file object returned from a file manager implementing this interface must observe the following behavior: 
According to these rules, the following URIs, for example, are
allowed:

    
  
  • 
    file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/UncleBob/BobsApp/Test.java
  
    • 
  
  • 
    jar:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/UncleBob/lib/vendorA.jar!/com/vendora/LibraryClass.class
  
    • 


Whereas these are not (reason in parentheses):

    
  
  • 
    file:BobsApp/Test.java (the file name is relative
    and depend on the current directory)
  
    • 
  
  • 
    jar:lib/vendorA.jar!/com/vendora/LibraryClass.class
    (the first half of the path depends on the current directory,
    whereas the component after ! is legal)
  
    • 
  
  • 
    Test.java (this URI depends on the current
    directory and does not have a schema)
  
    • 
  
  • 
    jar:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/UncleBob/BobsApp/../lib/vendorA.jar!com/vendora/LibraryClass.class
    (the path is not normalized)
  
    • 



All implementations of this interface must support Path objects representing files in the default file system. It is recommended that implementations should support Path objects from any filesystem.


Author:Peter von der Ahé
API Note: Some methods on this interface take a Collection<? extends Path> instead of Iterable<? extends Path>. This is to prevent the possibility of accidentally calling the method with a single Path as such an argument, because although Path implements Iterable<Path>, it would almost never be correct to call these methods with a single Path and have it be treated as an Iterable of its components.
