public abstract class FileLogItem
extends LogItem

This class is an abstract representation of SAFS log files. In addition to attributes common to all LogItems, FileLogItem supports two more attributes: file spec and parent directory. File spec is the name (with or without path) of the file. It can be specified in absolute or relative form. When a relative path is specified, it is used together with parent directory to determine the full path of the file. If file spec is absolute, the parent directory is ignored.
