Package com.xebialabs.overthere Description

Contains the core API of the Overthere library. This library allows users to work with local or remote systems through an abstraction layer. Some of the features:

• Files can be manipulated, read and written.
• Commands can be executed.
• A local system ("localhost") can be accessed directly.
• A remote system can be accessed using any number of connection methods implemented: SSH, CIFS/Telnet, etc.
• The host can be a Windows or a Unix machine.

To start, create a connection by invoking Overthere.getConnection(String, ConnectionOptions). Then, create file objects using OverthereConnection.getFile(String) and manipulate them or execute commands using OverthereConnection.execute(OverthereProcessOutputHandler, CmdLine)).
