Erik,
A few thoughts from my gander through the source:
- I'm thinking the "Stuff" trait belongs in either a "Files" object, or insidea Filesystem abstraction
- We should migrate from java.nio.charset.Charset to paulp's new Codec class
- We should probably be using xyzStream.buffered for any of the pass-through File api calls (writeLines/readLines, etc.)
Other than that, I like what you've done. The use of Option/Either instead of null is great! I'm wondering if we should make some extractors to make pattern matching files somewhat easier...
e.g.
myPath match {
case _ / _ / "*.foo".r =>
case File("/") / _ / "log" / glob("**/*.log")
case Directory() =>
}
Anyway, curious if you had any other thoughts/designs.
Also, has anyone else looked through the API to give us an idea of what they think? I plan to find sometime this week to really compare it against the upcoming JSR for Java 7.
