Class SharabilityQuery

java.lang.Object

org.netbeans.api.queries.SharabilityQuery

public final class SharabilityQuery
extends Object

Determine whether files should be shared (for example in a VCS) or are intended to be unshared. Likely to be of use only to a VCS filesystem.

This query can be considered to obsolete FileObject.setImportant(boolean). Unlike that method, the information is pulled by the VCS filesystem on demand, which may be more reliable than ensuring that the information is pushed by a project type (or other implementor) eagerly.
