VFSLib Java Library

VFSLib is a Java library to extend the Apache Commons VFS 2.0 library with providers for cloud file systems like Dropbox©, Google Drive©, and Amazon S3©. The VFS 2.0 library allows programmers to access local and network files in a way that is independent of the underlying file system. The standard VFS 2.0 library comes with support for FTP, SFTP, and other traditional file systems which can now be easily extended by the brand new VFSLib.

Why limit your applications to one single cloud file system? Let your customers choose the system they want and support all of the major systems on the market today! The programming is easy and consistent so there is no need to spend hours on dealing with the complex vendor specific APIs.
