Oliver Zeigermann commented on TRANSACTION-9:
---------------------------------------------
Locking
===============
I agree to what Peter says about locking of files/folders and locking in
general. What about a HierarchicalLockManager that takes care of all that stuff
for us? Might even be reuseable. I will add an empty impementation for us to
remember to later fill it.
Interfaces
========
I will add the interfaces to the SVN soon. Let us base further discussions on
what is in SVN from then on. That might make things a bit easier. I will also
propose a simple interceptor (instead of listener) concept that is "inspired"
by how it works in XA and Spring MVC.
Concerning Jörg's comments:
1. setProperty() is supposed to return the old value, but maybe that does not
make that much sense? WDYT?
2. append has been added to writeStream()
3. the filter thing sounds interesting: Do you have code for that?
4. I have no really elegant solution to the create-Problem. Distinguishing
between FileResource and DirectoryResource introduces many problems, some of
them requiring excessive casting. I have been there before. Currently I favor
the createAsFile/Directory() solution.

> Hi,
> As stated in the doc the FileResourceManager is:
> "A resource manager for streamable objects stored in a file system"
> I agree, that this is a resource manager, but it could be easily extended, to
> support a full file management system. It will be very helpful to have
> additional methods like renameResource(), getResourceSize(),
> getResourceTime(),
> setResourceTime() etc. This are common file operations, which should be
> managed
> by the FileResourceManager.
> Further it will be very helpful to have (real) support for resource
> collections
> (folders). It will be necessary to distinguish between single resources
> (files)
> and collections (folders).
> Together, this features will enable a transactional access to any file based
> resources - for instance a document repository.
> Are there plans for such extensions and if not, will they actually fit in the
> goals of the transaction library?
> If not, please open the underlying structure, like the inner class
> TransactionContext, in order to add extensions the file management. For
> instance, it will be good to have a separate factory method, which creates
> the
> context.
> If you are interested in this proposal, I am ready to contribute to this
> project. I consider myself as an experienced java developer and I will be
> glad
> to help you.
> Best regards
> Peter Fassev
