The methods defined by the {@link * java.nio.file.Files} class will typically delegate to an instance of this * class. * *

A file system provider is a concrete implementation of this class that * implements the abstract methods defined by this class. A provider is * identified by a {@code URI} {@link #getScheme() scheme}. The default provider * is identified by the URI scheme "file". It creates the {@link FileSystem} that * provides access to the file systems accessible to the Java virtual machine. * The {@link FileSystems} class defines how file system providers are located * and loaded. The default provider is typically a system-default provider but * may be overridden if the system property {@code * java.nio.file.spi.DefaultFileSystemProvider} is set. In that case, the * provider has a one argument constructor whose formal parameter type is {@code * FileSystemProvider}. All other providers have a zero argument constructor * that initializes the provider. * *

A provider is a factory for one or more {@link FileSystem} instances. Each * file system is identified by a {@code URI} where the URI's scheme matches * the provider's {@link #getScheme scheme}. The default file system, for example, * is identified by the URI {@code "file:///"}. A memory-based file system, * for example, may be identified by a URI such as {@code "memory:///?name=logfs"}. * The {@link #newFileSystem newFileSystem} method may be used to create a file * system, and the {@link #getFileSystem getFileSystem} method may be used to * obtain a reference to an existing file system created by the provider. Where * a provider is the factory for a single file system then it is provider dependent * if the file system is created when the provider is initialized, or later when * the {@code newFileSystem} method is invoked. In the case of the default * provider, the {@code FileSystem} is created when the provider is initialized. * *
