JimFS: how to get File from Path

4.6k Views Asked by At

I started using google jimfs and I can't understand how I can get file from path. In source code I see that Path.toFile throws UnsupportedOperationException. But how then can I use it without files? For example if my application need to know if some path is folder or file.

The JSR 203 API has all the tools you need for that; and in this case, the Files class.

In spite of its name, it handles everything Path. For instance, you can use:

Files.isDirectory(thePath)

to test whether a file is a directory. But there are also other ways to test for the same thing.
