    All Known Implementing Classes:
    DomainFileProxy, GhidraFile

    public interface DomainFile
    extends java.lang.Comparable<DomainFile>
    DomainFile provides a storage interface for project files. A DomainFile is an immutable reference to file contained within a project. The state of a DomainFile object does not track name/parent changes made to the referenced project file.

                                     CancelledException
        Opens and returns the current domain object. If the domain object is already opened, then the existing open domain object is returned.
        Parameters:
        consumer - consumer of the domain object which is responsible for releasing it after use. When all the consumers using the domain object release it, then the object is closed and its resources released.
        okToUpgrade - if true, allows the system to upgrade out of data domain objects to be in compliance with the current version of Ghidra. A Version exception will be thrown if the domain object cannot be upgraded OR okToUpgrade is false and the domain object is out of date.
        okToRecover - if true, allows the system to recover unsaved file changes which resulted from a crash. If false, any existing recovery data will be deleted. This flag is only relevant if project is open for update (isInProject) and the file can be opened for update.
        monitor - permits monitoring of open progress.

        an open domain object can be modified and saved. (Not read-only)
        Throws:
        VersionException - if the domain object could not be read due to a version format change. If okToUpgrade is true, then a VersionException indicates that the domain object cannot be upgraded to the current format. If okToUpgrade is false, then the VersionException only means the object is not in the current format - it may or may not be possible to upgrade.
        java.io.IOException - thrown if an IO or access error occurs.
        CancelledException - if monitor cancelled operation
      • getOpenedDomainObject

        Returns a "read-only" version of the domain object. "Read-only" means that the domain object cannot be saved back into its original domain object. It can still be modified and saved to a new domain file. The domain object will be assigned a temporary domain file that will not allow a "save" operation. The user must do a "save as" to a new filename.
        Parameters:
        consumer - consumer of the domain object which is responsible for releasing it after use.
        version - the domain object version requested. DEFAULT_VERSION should be specified to open the current version.
