getJavaFileForOutput

                                           FileObject sibling)
                                    throws IOException

Description copied from interface: JavaFileManager

Returns a file object for output representing the specified class of the specified kind in the given package-oriented location.

Optionally, this file manager might consider the sibling as a hint for where to place the output. The exact semantics of this hint is unspecified. The JDK compiler, javac, for example, will place class files in the same directories as originating source files unless a class file output directory is provided. To facilitate this behavior, javac might provide the originating source file as sibling when calling this method.

Specified by:
getJavaFileForOutput in interface JavaFileManager
Parameters:
location - a package-oriented location
className - the name of a class
kind - the kind of file, must be one of SOURCE or CLASS
sibling - a file object to be used as hint for placement; might be null
Returns:
a file object for output
Throws:
IllegalArgumentException - if sibling is not known to this file manager, or if the location is not known to this file manager and the file manager does not support unknown locations, or if the kind is not valid, or if the location is not an output location
IllegalStateException - JavaFileManager.close() has been called and this file manager cannot be reopened
IOException - if an I/O error occurred, or if JavaFileManager.close() has been called and this file manager cannot be reopened

getFileForInput

public FileObject getFileForInput(JavaFileManager.Location location,
                                  String packageName,
                                  String relativeName)
                           throws IOException

Description copied from interface: JavaFileManager

Returns a file object for input representing the specified relative name in the specified package in the given package-oriented location.

If the returned object represents a source or class file, it must be an instance of JavaFileObject.

Informally, the file object returned by this method is located in the concatenation of the location, package name, and relative name. For example, to locate the properties file "resources/compiler.properties" in the package "com.sun.tools.javac" in the SOURCE_PATH location, this method might be called like so: 

getFileForInput(SOURCE_PATH, "com.sun.tools.javac", "resources/compiler.properties");

If the call was executed on Windows, with SOURCE_PATH set to "C:\Documents and Settings\UncleBob\src\share\classes", a valid result would be a file object representing the file "C:\Documents and Settings\UncleBob\src\share\classes\com\sun\tools\javac\resources\compiler.properties".

Specified by:
getFileForInput in interface JavaFileManager
Parameters:
location - a package-oriented location
packageName - a package name
relativeName - a relative name
Returns:
a file object, might return null if the file does not exist
Throws:
IllegalArgumentException - if the location is not known to this file manager and the file manager does not support unknown locations, or if relativeName is not valid, or if the location is a module-oriented location
IllegalStateException - if JavaFileManager.close() has been called and this file manager cannot be reopened
IOException - if an I/O error occurred, or if JavaFileManager.close() has been called and this file manager cannot be reopened

getFileForOutput

public FileObject getFileForOutput(JavaFileManager.Location location,
                                   String packageName,
                                   String relativeName,
                                   FileObject sibling)
                            throws IOException

Description copied from interface: JavaFileManager

Returns a file object for output representing the specified relative name in the specified package in the given location.

Optionally, this file manager might consider the sibling as a hint for where to place the output. The exact semantics of this hint is unspecified. The JDK compiler, javac, for example, will place class files in the same directories as originating source files unless a class file output directory is provided. To facilitate this behavior, javac might provide the originating source file as sibling when calling this method.

If the returned object represents a source or class file, it must be an instance of JavaFileObject.

Informally, the file object returned by this method is located in the concatenation of the location, package name, and relative name or next to the sibling argument. See getFileForInput for an example.

Specified by:
getFileForOutput in interface JavaFileManager
Parameters:
location - an output location
packageName - a package name
relativeName - a relative name
sibling - a file object to be used as hint for placement; might be null

IllegalStateException - if JavaFileManager.close() has been called and this file manager cannot be reopened
IOException - if an I/O error occurred, or if JavaFileManager.close() has been called and this file manager cannot be reopened
