Method Detail

mountClasspathArchive

void mountClasspathArchive(Class<?> c,
                         PathVirtual mount)
                           throws FilesystemError

Mount the archive containing class c at mount. The path specified by mount is required to refer to an existing directory.

If the directory at mount exists but was not explicitly created with FSCapabilityCreateDirectoryType.createDirectory(PathVirtual), then the mountArchive function first calls FSCapabilityCreateDirectoryType.createDirectory(PathVirtual) to mark mount as explicitly created, and then attempts to mount the archive as normal.

Parameters:

c - A class appearing in one of the archives on the classpath.

mount - The mount point for the archive.

Throws:

FilesystemError - If a filesystem error occurs.
