            <a class="link" href="class-giofile.html" title="gio.File"><code class="classname">gio.File</code></a> is a high
            level abstraction for manipulating files on a virtual file system.
            <a class="link" href="class-giofile.html" title="gio.File"><code class="classname">gio.File</code></a>s are lightweight,
            immutable objects that do no I/O upon creation. It is necessary to understand that
            <a class="link" href="class-giofile.html" title="gio.File"><code class="classname">gio.File</code></a>
            objects do not represent files, merely an identifier for a file. All file content
            I/O is implemented as streaming operations (see
            <a class="link" href="class-gioinputstream.html" title="gio.InputStream"><code class="classname">gio.InputStream</code></a> and
            <a class="link" href="class-giooutputstream.html" title="gio.OutputStream"><code class="classname">gio.OutputStream</code></a>). 
        </p><p>
            To construct a <a class="link" href="class-giofile.html" title="gio.File"><code class="classname">gio.File</code></a>, you can use
            it's constructor either with a path, an uri or a commandline argument.
            <code class="methodname"><a class="link" href="class-giofile.html#function-gio--file-parse-name" title="gio.file_parse_name">gio.file_parse_name</a></code>()
            from a utf8 string gotten from
            <code class="methodname"><a class="link" href="class-giofile.html#method-giofile--get-parse-name" title="gio.File.get_parse_name">gio.File.get_parse_name</a></code>().
        </p><p>
            One way to think of a <a class="link" href="class-giofile.html" title="gio.File"><code class="classname">gio.File</code></a> is as
            an abstraction of a pathname. For normal files the system pathname is what is stored internally,
            but as <a class="link" href="class-giofile.html" title="gio.File"><code class="classname">gio.File</code></a>s are extensible it
            could also be something else that corresponds to a pathname in a userspace implementation of a filesystem. 
        </p><p>
            <a class="link" href="class-giofile.html" title="gio.File"><code class="classname">gio.File</code></a>s make up hierarchies of
            directories and files that correspond to the files on a filesystem. You can move through the
            file system with GFile using
            <code class="methodname"><a class="link" href="class-giofile.html#method-giofile--get-parent" title="gio.File.get_parent">gio.File.get_parent</a></code>()
            to get an identifier for the parent directory,
            <code class="methodname"><a class="link" href="class-giofile.html#method-giofile--get-child" title="gio.File.get_child">gio.File.get_child</a></code>()
            to get a child within a directory,
            <code class="methodname"><a class="link" href="class-giofile.html#method-giofile--resolve-relative-path" title="gio.File.resolve_relative_path">gio.File.resolve_relative_path</a></code>()
            to resolve a relative path between two <a class="link" href="class-giofile.html" title="gio.File"><code class="classname">gio.File</code></a>s.
            There can be multiple hierarchies, so you may not end up at the same root if you repeatedly call
            <code class="methodname"><a class="link" href="class-giofile.html#method-giofile--get-parent" title="gio.File.get_parent">gio.File.get_parent</a></code>()
            on two different files. 
        </p><p>
            All <a class="link" href="class-giofile.html" title="gio.File"><code class="classname">gio.File</code></a>s have a basename (get with
            <code class="methodname"><a class="link" href="class-giofile.html#method-giofile--get-basename" title="gio.File.get_basename">gio.File.get_basename</a></code>()
            ). These names are byte strings that are used to identify the file on the filesystem
            (relative to its parent directory) and there is no guarantees that they have any particular charset
            encoding or even make any sense at all. If you want to use filenames in a user interface you should
            use the display name that you can get by requesting the gio.FILE_ATTRIBUTE_STANDARD_DISPLAY_NAME attribute with
            <code class="methodname"><a class="link" href="class-giofile.html#method-giofile--query-info" title="gio.File.query_filesystem_info">gio.File.query_info</a></code>().
            This is guaranteed to be in utf8 and can be used in a user interface. But always store the real basename or the
            GFile to use to actually access the file, because there is no way to go from a display name to the actual name. 
        </p><p>
            Using <a class="link" href="class-giofile.html" title="gio.File"><code class="classname">gio.File</code></a> as an identifier has the same
            weaknesses as using a path in that there may be multiple aliases for the same file. For instance,
            hard or soft links may cause two different <a class="link" href="class-giofile.html" title="gio.File"><code class="classname">gio.File</code></a>s
            to refer to the same file. Other possible causes for aliases are: case insensitive filesystems, short and
            long names on Fat/NTFS, or bind mounts in Linux. If you want to check if two GFiles point to the same file
            you can query for the gio.FILE_ATTRIBUTE_ID_FILE attribute. Note that
            <a class="link" href="class-giofile.html" title="gio.File"><code class="classname">gio.File</code></a> does some trivial canonicalization
            of pathnames passed in, so that trivial differences in the path string used at creation
            (duplicated slashes, slash at end of path, "." or ".." path segments, etc) does not create different
            <a class="link" href="class-giofile.html" title="gio.File"><code class="classname">gio.File</code></a>s. 
        </p><p>
            Many <a class="link" href="class-giofile.html" title="gio.File"><code class="classname">gio.File</code></a> operations have both synchronous
            and asynchronous versions to suit your application. Asynchronous versions of synchronous functions simply
            have _async() appended to their function names. The asynchronous I/O functions call a
            GAsyncReadyCallback which is then used to finalize the operation, producing a GAsyncResult
            which is then passed to the function's matching _finish() operation. 
        </p><p>
            Some <a class="link" href="class-giofile.html" title="gio.File"><code class="classname">gio.File</code></a> operations do not have
            synchronous analogs, as they may take a very long time to finish, and blocking may leave an application
            unusable. Notable cases include:
            <code class="methodname"><a class="link" href="class-giofile.html#method-giofile--mount-mountable" title="gio.File.mount_mountable">gio.File.mount_mountable</a></code>()
            to mount a mountable file.
            <code class="methodname"><a class="link" href="class-giofile.html#method-giofile--unmount-mountable" title="gio.File.unmount_mountable">gio.File.unmount_mountable</a></code>()
            to unmount a mountable file.
            <code class="methodname"><a class="link" href="class-giofile.html#method-giofile--eject-mountable" title="gio.File.eject_mountable">gio.File.eject_mountable</a></code>()
            to eject a mountable file. 
        </p><p>
            One notable feature of <a class="link" href="class-giofile.html" title="gio.File"><code class="classname">gio.File</code></a>s are
            entity tags, or "etags" for short. Entity tags are somewhat like a more abstract
            version of the traditional mtime, and can be used to quickly determine if the file
            has been modified from the version on the file system. See the HTTP 1.1
            specification for HTTP Etag headers, which are a very similar concept.

                The <code class="methodname">query_exists</code>() method is an tility function to check
                if a particular file exists. This is implemented using
                <code class="methodname"><a class="link" href="class-giofile.html#method-giofile--query-info" title="gio.File.query_filesystem_info">gio.File.query_info</a></code>()
                and as such does blocking I/O. 
            </p><p>
                Note that in many cases it is racy to first check for file existence and then execute
                something based on the outcome of that, because the file might have been created or
                removed in between the operations. The general approach to handling that is to not check,
                but just do the operation and handle the errors as they come. 
            </p><p>
                As an example of race-free checking, take the case of reading a file, and if it doesn't
                exist, creating it. There are two racy versions: read it, and on error create it; and:
                check if it exists, if not create it. These can both result in two processes creating the
                file (with perhaps a partially written file as the result). The correct approach is to
                always try to create the file with
                <code class="methodname"><a class="link" href="class-giofile.html#method-giofile--create" title="gio.File.create">gio.File.create</a></code>()
                which will either atomically create the file or fail with a gio.ERROR_EXISTS error. 
            </p><p>
                However, in many cases an existence check is useful in a user interface, for instance
                to make a menu item sensitive/insensitive, so that you don't have to fool users that
                something is possible and then just show and error dialog. If you do this, you should
                make sure to also handle the errors that can happen due to races when you execute the operation.

                The <code class="methodname">replace</code>() method returns an output stream for

                This will try to replace the file in the safest way possible so that any
                errors during the writing will not affect an already existing copy of the file.
                For instance, for local files it may write to a temporary file and then atomically
                rename over the destination when the stream is closed.

                By default files created are generally readable by everyone, but if you pass

                the current user, to the level that is supported on the target filesystem.

                If you pass in a non-<code class="literal">None</code> etag value, then this value is compared
                to the current entity tag of the file, and if they differ an gio.ERROR_WRONG_ETAG error
                is returned. This generally means that the file has been changed since you last read it.
                You can get the new etag from
                <code class="methodname"><a class="link" href="class-giofileoutputstream.html#method-giofileoutputstream--get-etag" title="gio.FileOutputStream.get_etag">gio.FileOutputStream.get_etag</a></code>()
                after you've finished writing and closed the GFileOutputStream. When you load a new file you can use

            </p><p>
                If make_backup is <code class="literal">True</code>, this function will attempt to make a backup
                of the current file before overwriting it. If this fails a gio.ERROR_CANT_CREATE_BACKUP
                error will be returned. If you want to replace anyway, try again
                with make_backup set to <code class="literal">False</code>. 
            </p><p>
                If the file is a directory the gio.ERROR_IS_DIRECTORY error will be returned, and
                if the file is some other form of non-regular file then a gio.ERROR_NOT_REGULAR_FILE
                error will be returned. Some file systems don't allow all file names, and may return an
                gio.ERROR_INVALID_FILENAME error, and if the name is to long gio.ERROR_FILENAME_TOO_LONG
                will be returned. Other errors are possible too, and depend on what kind of filesystem the file is on.

                The <code class="methodname">trash</code>() method sends file to the "Trashcan", if possible.
                This is similar to deleting it, but the user can recover it before emptying the trashcan.
                Not all file systems support trashing, so this call can return the gio.ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTED error.

                the error gio.ERROR_CANCELLED will be returned.
