File Representation Interfaces

Overview

File-system representation interfaces.

The interfaces defined here are used for file-system and file-system-like representations of objects, such as file-system synchronization, FTP, PUT, and WebDAV.

CHANGES

3.6.1 (unreleased)

3.6.0 (2009-10-08)

  • Added IRawReadFile and IRawWriteFile interfaces. These extend IReadFile and IWritefile, respectively, to behave pretty much like a standard Python file object with a few embellishments. This in turn allows efficient, iterator- based implementations of file reading and writing.
  • Removed DEPENDENCIES.cfg
  • Removed dependency on zope.container: IReadDirectory and IWriteDirectory inherit only from interfaces defined in zope.interface and zope.interface.common.mapping.

3.5.0 (2009-01-31)

  • Changed use of zope.app.container to zope.container.

3.4.0 (2007-10-02)

  • Initial Zope-independent release.
