| <h3>Alternate file systems</h3> |
| |
| <p> |
| Most of the time, resources in the workspace are stored in a local file system |
| that is accessible via <tt>java.io.File</tt>. However, it is also possible |
| to create resources that are stored in other kinds of file systems, such |
| as network file systems or a database. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| The next few sections cover how to contribute alternative file systems, and how |
| to work with resources stored in different file systems. |
