org.olat.core.util.coordinate.Filer
work in progress a helper to organize files. a FileTransaction is essentially a file system directory without the user knowing the absolute path.

a FileTransaction is a unit of work (as a db transaction) that can either be committed or rolled back. this is a very very simple form of a transactional filesystem.

a FileTransaction does however -not- provide
- a locking utility
- quota management
- a vfs (virtual file system)
- synchronizing access to files and directories

org.olat.core.commons.contextHelp.ContextHelpManager.countCommunityRatings(Locale, String, String)
