- Method Detail
  - getFile
```
File getFile()
```
    Returns the file being visited.
    
    Returns:
    The file. Never returns null.
  - isDirectory
```
boolean isDirectory()
```
    Returns true if this element is a directory, or false if this element is a regular file.
    
    Returns:
    true if this element is a directory.
  - getLastModified
```
long getLastModified()
```
    Returns the last modified time of this file. Generally, calling this method is more performant than calling getFile().lastModified()
    
    Returns:
    The last modified time.
  - getSize
```
long getSize()
```
    Returns the size of this file. Generally, calling this method is more performant than calling getFile().length().
    
    Returns:
    The size, in bytes.
  - open
```
InputStream open()
```
    Opens this file as an input stream. Generally, calling this method is more performant than calling new FileInputStream(getFile()).
    
    Returns:
    The input stream. Never returns null. The caller is responsible for closing this stream.
  - copyTo
```
void copyTo(OutputStream outstr)
```
    Copies the content of this file to an output stream. Generally, calling this method is more performant than calling new FileInputStream(getFile()).
    
    Parameters:
    outstr - The output stream to write to. The caller is responsible for closing this stream.
  - copyTo
```
boolean copyTo(File target)
```
    Copies this file to the given target file. Does not copy the file if the target is already a copy of this file.
    
    Parameters:
    target - the target file.
    
    Returns:
    true if this file was copied, false if it was up-to-date
  - getName
```
String getName()
```
    Returns the base name of this file.
    
    Returns:
    The name. Never returns null.
  - getPath
```
String getPath()
```
    Returns the path of this file, relative to the root of the containing file tree. Always uses '/' as the hierarchy separator, regardless of platform file separator. Same as calling getRelativePath().getPathString().
    
    Returns:
    The path. Never returns null.
  - getRelativePath
```
RelativePath getRelativePath()
```
    Returns the path of this file, relative to the root of the containing file tree.
    
    Returns:
    The path. Never returns null.
  - getMode
```
int getMode()
```
    Returns the Unix permissions of this file, e.g. 0644.
    
    Returns:
    The Unix file permissions.
