Packages that use FileObject
javax.annotation.processing	Facilities for declaring annotation processors and for allowing annotation processors to communicate with an annotation processing tool environment.
javax.tools	Provides interfaces for tools which can be invoked from a program, for example, compilers.

Uses of FileObject in javax.annotation.processing

Methods in javax.annotation.processing that return FileObject
FileObject	Filer.createResource(JavaFileManager.Location location, CharSequence pkg, CharSequence relativeName, Element... originatingElements) Creates a new auxiliary resource file for writing and returns a file object for it.
FileObject	Filer.getResource(JavaFileManager.Location location, CharSequence pkg, CharSequence relativeName) Returns an object for reading an existing resource.

Uses of FileObject in javax.tools

Classes in javax.tools with type parameters of type FileObject
class	ForwardingFileObject<F extends FileObject> Forwards calls to a given file object.

Subinterfaces of FileObject in javax.tools
interface	JavaFileObject File abstraction for tools operating on Java™ programming language source and class files.

Classes in javax.tools that implement FileObject
class	ForwardingFileObject<F extends FileObject> Forwards calls to a given file object.
class	ForwardingJavaFileObject<F extends JavaFileObject> Forwards calls to a given file object.
class	SimpleJavaFileObject Provides simple implementations for most methods in JavaFileObject.

Fields in javax.tools declared as FileObject
protected F	ForwardingFileObject.fileObject The file object which all methods are delegated to.

Methods in javax.tools that return FileObject
FileObject	JavaFileManager.getFileForInput(JavaFileManager.Location location, String packageName, String relativeName) Gets a file object for input representing the specified relative name in the specified package in the given location.
FileObject	ForwardingJavaFileManager.getFileForInput(JavaFileManager.Location location, String packageName, String relativeName)
FileObject	JavaFileManager.getFileForOutput(JavaFileManager.Location location, String packageName, String relativeName, FileObject sibling) Gets a file object for output representing the specified relative name in the specified package in the given location.
FileObject	ForwardingJavaFileManager.getFileForOutput(JavaFileManager.Location location, String packageName, String relativeName, FileObject sibling)

Methods in javax.tools with parameters of type FileObject
FileObject	JavaFileManager.getFileForOutput(JavaFileManager.Location location, String packageName, String relativeName, FileObject sibling) Gets a file object for output representing the specified relative name in the specified package in the given location.
FileObject	ForwardingJavaFileManager.getFileForOutput(JavaFileManager.Location location, String packageName, String relativeName, FileObject sibling)
JavaFileObject	JavaFileManager.getJavaFileForOutput(JavaFileManager.Location location, String className, JavaFileObject.Kind kind, FileObject sibling) Gets a file object for output representing the specified class of the specified kind in the given location.
JavaFileObject	ForwardingJavaFileManager.getJavaFileForOutput(JavaFileManager.Location location, String className, JavaFileObject.Kind kind, FileObject sibling)
boolean	StandardJavaFileManager.isSameFile(FileObject a, FileObject b) Compares two file objects and return true if they represent the same canonical file, zip file entry, or entry in any file system based container.
boolean	JavaFileManager.isSameFile(FileObject a, FileObject b) Compares two file objects and return true if they represent the same underlying object.
boolean	ForwardingJavaFileManager.isSameFile(FileObject a, FileObject b)
