Package org.ogf.saga.logicalfile Description

This package provides classes to interact with replica systems. No specific consistency model is impied by the SAGA API specification. A LogicalFile represents an entry in a namespace which administers a set of registered replicas of a specific file. A LogicalDirectory represents a directory entry in the namespace of logical files, that is, it is a container for logical files. Some methods in this interface have been renamed slightly to avoid conflicts with methods in NSDirectory, as only the type of the return value differs, and Java forbids that.

The possible logicalfile flags are defined in the Flags enumeration class, which includes methods to combine them into integers, and to determine if they are set in an integer. These methods are not described in the language-independent SAGA specification, but are added in the Java language bindings because in Java, enumerations cannot be treated as integers. Also, since enumeration classes are not extensible in Java, flags from the namespace package and the file package are included there as well.
