[opencms-dev] Best way to determine existence of file in VFS

[Ernesto De Santis]

Hi Alex

> Write one ;-)
:-).. Well...:

public boolean existFile(String filename){
   try{
        readFile(filename);
        return true;
   }catch(CmsException e){
       return false;
   }
}

But I want this method in CmsObject class.

Why CmsObject don´t have this method?
(and existFolder)

Bye
Ernesto.
