Make Java NIO standard options available in fs.open()

[botic]

The Java NIO API provides useful standard open options[1] for file operations. At the moment Ringo only supports READ, WRITE, APPEND. Ringo could also provide shortcuts / options for CREATE, CREATE_NEW, DELETE_ON_CLOSE, SPARSE, TRUNCATE_EXISTING.

Would be nice, but if it isn't supported in common js, we should provide it in some other way. On the other side: if it doesn't brake the standard, why not... Am 21.10.2015 5:14 nachm. schrieb "Philipp Naderer" < [email protected]>:

:+1: these would be just additional options, so i don't see any harm offering them.

Then it will be a useful addition. We should give a hint in the documentation that these aren't standard, tough. Am 21.10.2015 8:15 nachm. schrieb "Robert Gaggl" [email protected]:
