Method Detail

getMapPath

@NotNull
public static java.lang.String getMapPath(@NotNull
                                                   java.io.File file,
                                                   @NotNull
                                                   java.io.File baseDir)

Returns a relative path path for a File.

Parameters:

file - the file

baseDir - the base directory to relativize against

Returns:

the relative path

isAbsolute

public static boolean isAbsolute(@NotNull
                                 java.lang.String path)

Check whether a path is absolute. Paths starting with "/" are absolute, paths starting with other characters are relative. Empty paths are relative.

Parameters:

path - the path to check

Returns:

true if path is absolute, false otherwise

which nearly is the opposite of this method

isRelative

public static boolean isRelative(@NotNull
                                 java.lang.String path)

Check whether a path is relative. Paths not starting with "/" are relative, paths starting with are absolute. Empty paths are relative.

Parameters:

path - the path to check

Returns:

true if path is relative, false otherwise

See Also:

which nearly is the opposite of this method

relativeToAbsolute

@NotNull
public static java.lang.String relativeToAbsolute(@NotNull
                                                           java.lang.String reference,
                                                           @NotNull
                                                           java.lang.String relative)

Converts a relative path to an absolute path. If the path already is absolute, this method simply returns the path. If the reference ends on "/", it is treated as being a base directory, otherwise a file that's directory is taken as base.

Parameters:

reference - the reference file the relative path works on

relative - destination file with relative path

Returns:

absolute path from the base directory

absoluteToRelative

@NotNull
public static java.lang.String absoluteToRelative(@NotNull
                                                           java.lang.String reference,
                                                           @NotNull
                                                           java.lang.String absolute)

Converts an absolute path to a relative path. If the path already is relative, this method simply returns the path. If the reference ends on "/", it is treated as being a base directory, otherwise a file that's directory is taken as base.

Parameters:

reference - the reference file the relative path works on

absolute - destination file with relative path

Returns:

absolute path from the base directory

path

@NotNull
public static java.lang.String path(@NotNull
                                             java.lang.CharSequence str)

Create a reasonable path.

Parameters:

str - the string to create path from

Returns:

path

getAbsolutePath

@NotNull
public static java.lang.String getAbsolutePath(@NotNull
                                                        java.lang.CharSequence path)

Returns the given path in absolute form.

Parameters:

path - the path to convert

Returns:

the absolute path
