Parameters of Action "rename"

Defining a "rename" Action

To rename a file with the file system adapter, you need to define a rename action on an action having the stereotype <<FileSystemAdapter>>. You can do this manually or with the help of the xUML Action Wizard (see context menu of the action node).

Figure: Renaming a File

The new file nameĀ newName is of the base type String and has to be provided dynamically. We recommend to provide a fully qualified file name (including the path).

The path and file name of the file you want to rename are defined in the component diagram.

Failed renaming <file name>.

Moving Files using the "rename" Action

You can use the rename action to easily move around files, simply by providing a new path with parameter newName.

This only works inside the same filesystem. Trying to move files to mounted filesystems will result in a "cross-device-link" error.
