/**
 * An abstract representation of file and directory pathnames.
 *
 * <p> User interfaces and operating systems use system-dependent <em>pathname
 * strings</em> to name files and directories.  This class presents an
 * abstract, system-independent view of hierarchical pathnames.  An
 * <em>abstract pathname</em> has two components:
 *
 * <ol>
 * <li> An optional system-dependent <em>prefix</em> string,<br>
 *      such as a disk-drive specifier, <code>"/"</code> for the UNIX root
 *      directory, or <code>"\\"</code> for a Win32 UNC pathname, and
 * <li> A sequence of zero or more string <em>names</em>.
 * </ol>
 *
 * Each name in an abstract pathname except for the last denotes a directory;
 * the last name may denote either a directory or a file.  The <em>empty</em>
 * abstract pathname has no prefix and an empty name sequence.
 *
 * <p> The conversion of a pathname string to or from an abstract pathname is
 * inherently system-dependent.  When an abstract pathname is converted into a
 * pathname string, each name is separated from the next by a single copy of
 * the default <em>separator character</em>.  The default name-separator
 * character is defined by the system property <code>file.separator</code>, and
 * is made available in the public static fields <code>{@link
 * #separator}</code> and <code>{@link #separatorChar}</code> of this class.
 * When a pathname string is converted into an abstract pathname, the names
 * within it may be separated by the default name-separator character or by any
 * other name-separator character that is supported by the underlying system.
 *
 * <p> A pathname, whether abstract or in string form, may be either
 * <em>absolute</em> or <em>relative</em>.  An absolute pathname is complete in
 * that no other information is required in order to locate the file that it
 * denotes.  A relative pathname, in contrast, must be interpreted in terms of
 * information taken from some other pathname.  By default the classes in the
 * <code>java.io</code> package always resolve relative pathnames against the
 * current user directory.  This directory is named by the system property
 * <code>user.dir</code>, and is typically the directory in which the Java
 * virtual machine was invoked.
 *
 * <p> The prefix concept is used to handle root directories on UNIX platforms,
 * and drive specifiers, root directories and UNC pathnames on Win32 platforms,
 * as follows:
 *
 * <ul>
 *
 * <li> For UNIX platforms, the prefix of an absolute pathname is always
 * <code>"/"</code>.  Relative pathnames have no prefix.  The abstract pathname
 * denoting the root directory has the prefix <code>"/"</code> and an empty
 * name sequence.
 *
 * <li> For Win32 platforms, the prefix of a pathname that contains a drive
 * specifier consists of the drive letter followed by <code>":"</code> and
 * possibly followed by <code>"\"</code> if the pathname is absolute.  The
 * prefix of a UNC pathname is <code>"\\"</code> the hostname and the share
 * name are the first two names in the name sequence.  A relative pathname that
 * does not specify a drive has no prefix.
 *
 * </ul>
 *
 * <p> Instances of the <code>File</code> class are immutable; that is, once
 * created, the abstract pathname represented by a <code>File</code> object
 * will never change.

     * This method provides only part of a temporary-file facility.  To arrange
     * for a file created by this method to be deleted automatically, use the
     * <code>{@link #deleteOnExit}</code> method.
     *
     * <p> The <code>prefix</code> argument must be at least three characters
     * long.  It is recommended that the prefix be a short, meaningful string
     * such as <code>"hjb"</code> or <code>"mail"</code>.  The
     * <code>suffix</code> argument may be <code>null</code>, in which case the
     * suffix <code>".tmp"</code> will be used.
     *
     * <p> To create the new file, the prefix and the suffix may first be
     * adjusted to fit the limitations of the underlying platform.  If the
     * prefix is too long then it will be truncated, but its first three
     * characters will always be preserved.  If the suffix is too long then it
     * too will be truncated, but if it begins with a period character
     * (<code>'.'</code>) then the period and the first three characters
     * following it will always be preserved.  Once these adjustments have been
     * made the name of the new file will be generated by concatenating the
     * prefix, five or more internally-generated characters, and the suffix.
     *
     * <p> If the <code>directory</code> argument is <code>null</code> then the
     * system-dependent default temporary-file directory will be used.  The
     * default temporary-file directory is specified by the system property
     * <code>java.io.tmpdir</code>.  On UNIX systems the default value of this
     * property is typically <code>"/tmp"</code> or <code>"/var/tmp"</code> on
     * Win32 systems it is typically <code>"c:\\temp"</code>.
     *

     *                    name; must be at least three characters long

     *                    suffix <code>".tmp"</code> will be used
     *

     *                    <code>null</code> if the default temporary-file
     *                    directory is to be used
