VIFSFile

java.lang.Object
- com.ibm.as400.vaccess.VIFSFile

All Implemented Interfaces:

VIFSConstants, VObject, java.io.Serializable

Deprecated.
Use Java Swing instead, along with the classes in package com.ibm.as400.access
```
public class VIFSFile
extends java.lang.Object
implements VObject, VIFSConstants, java.io.Serializable
```
The VIFSFile class defines the representation of a file in the integrated file system for use in various models and panes in this package.
Most errors are reported as ErrorEvents rather than throwing exceptions. Users should listen for ErrorEvents in order to diagnose and recover from error conditions.
VIFSFile objects generate the following events:
- ErrorEvent
- PropertyChangeEvent
- VObjectEvent
- WorkingEvent
