I was looking at the Operations API which seems to imply that the developer would be able to provide their own operations for different types of file systems. The only example seems to be a version control system which at present seems to be just a collection of interfaces. I was wondering if someone has some examples of how this is supposed to be used. There are no package comments, or class comments to point people in the right direction.
My thought is that I might be able to use this to combine the Javabeans Activation Framework's support for files-specific actions with the Operations API. This would allow the user to right-click on a file and see a list of operations that are pertinent to that file type. For example, if the user selects a music file, it might allow them to open an external music player, or view song metadata. Regards, -- Mark Fortner blog: http://www.jroller.com/phidias
