        Filter the paths from source into target using filter.
        Type Parameters:
        T - the collection type
        Parameters:
        source - the source paths
        filter - the filter to apply
        target - the destination for filtered paths
        Returns:
        the target set

      • getPathSet

        public static java.util.Set<java.lang.String> getPathSet​(java.lang.ClassLoader classLoader)
        Attempt to get a set of all paths defined directly by the given class loader. If the path set cannot be ascertained, null is returned.
        Parameters:
        classLoader - the class loader to inspect
        Returns:
        the set, or null if the paths could not be determined

      • relativize

        public static java.lang.String relativize​(java.lang.String path)
        Relativize the given path. Removes any leading / segments from the path.
        Parameters:
        path - the path to relativize
        Returns:
        the relative path

      • fileNameOfPath

        public static java.lang.String fileNameOfPath​(java.lang.String path)
        Get the file name (last) segment of the given path.
        Parameters:
        path - the path name
        Returns:
        the file name

      • canonicalize

        public static java.lang.String canonicalize​(java.lang.String path)
        Canonicalize the given path. Removes all . and .. segments from the path.
        Parameters:
        path - the relative or absolute possibly non-canonical path
        Returns:
        the canonical path

      • isChild

        public static boolean isChild​(java.lang.String parent,
                              java.lang.String child)
        Determine whether one path is a child of another.
        Parameters:
        parent - the parent path
        child - the child path
        Returns:
