Hi. I saw there is a topic called "4. progress, pause and cancellation api" on the VFS - next wiki of the commons vfs project website. Can I ask, is anybody working on this at the moment? The last edited tag says "2006-12-26 13:52:51". Are there any concrete plans on how to implement these features? For now: can I somehow stop a file copy/move operation (because it takes too long/the files are too big and I don't want to wait any longer)? For example I've got this code: target_file.copyFrom(source_file, new AllFileSelector()); If I run that in it's own thread, could I somehow manipulate the target_file/source_file (or anything else for that matter) so that the copy operation exits/stops? Even dodgy solutions are welcome... I tried to send an interrupt to the thread. I also tried to close the target_file/source_file and their content. The copy operation seems to just continue without a problem... A more general question: There doesn't seem to be much traffic on the vfs mailing list. Also, there doesn't seem to be much happening in the svn repository. Is the project still actively developed? I really think it is a good and useful library. It would be sad to see it fading away slowly... Thanks a lot.
