I don't know if it helps this debate, but when I went thru JDK 1.5
changes for IO I came up with the following (which are mostly
generifying methods):
ConditionalFileFilter (interface)
- public List<IOFileFilter> getFileFilters()
- public void setFileFilters(final List<IOFileFilter> fileFilters) {
AndFileFilter
- public AndFileFilter(final List<IOFileFilter> fileFilters)
- public List<IOFileFilter> getFileFilters()
- public void setFileFilters(final List<IOFileFilter> fileFilters) {
OrFileFilter
- public OrFileFilter(final List<IOFileFilter> fileFilters)
- public List<IOFileFilter> getFileFilters()
- public void setFileFilters(final List<IOFileFilter> fileFilters) {
NameFileFilter
- public NameFileFilter(List<String> names)
- public NameFileFilter(List<String> names, IOCase caseSensitivity)
PrefixFileFilter
- public PrefixFileFilter(List<String> prefixes)
- public PrefixFileFilter(List<String> names, IOCase caseSensitivity)
SuffixFileFilter
- public SuffixFileFilter(List<String> prefixes)
- public SuffixFileFilter(List<String> names, IOCase caseSensitivity)
WildcardFileFilter
- public WildcardFileFilter(List<String> prefixes)
- public WildcardFileFilter(List<String> names, IOCase caseSensitivity)
FileUtils
- public static File[] convertFileCollectionToFileArray(Collection<File> files)
- public static Collection<File> listFiles(
- public static void writeStringToFile(File file, CharSequence data,
String encoding)
[note CharSequence version replaces String falvour]
ClassLoaderObjectInputStream
- protected Class<?> resolveClass(ObjectStreamClass objectStreamClass)
ProxyReader
- public int read(CharBuffer target) [new method added]
IOUtils
- public static List<String> readLines(Reader input)
- public static InputStream toInputStream(CharSequence input)
- public static InputStream toInputStream(CharSequence input, String encoding)
- public static void write(CharSequence data, Writer output)
- public static void write(CharSequence data, OutputStream output)
- public static void write(CharSequence data, OutputStream output,
String encoding)
[Note CharSequence replaces String and/or StringBuffer flavours]
LineIterator
- public class LineIterator implements Iterator<String>
- public String next() [was returning Object]
NullWriter, ProxyWriter
- add public Writer append(char c)
- add public Writer append(CharSequence csq, int start, int end)
- add public Writer append(CharSequence csq)
So the changes are pretty minimal for IO - question is are these
incompatible changes with generics being erased? If not then perhaps
we can do this without breaking anything.
