/**@class java.io.RandomAccessFile implements java.io.DataOutput implements java.io.DataInput implements java.io.Closeable @extends java.lang.Object Instances of this class support both reading and writing to a random access file. A random access file behaves like a large array of bytes stored in the file system. There is a kind of cursor, or index into the implied array, called the <em>file pointer</em>; input operations read bytes starting at the file pointer and advance the file pointer past the bytes read. If the random access file is created in read/write mode, then output operations are also available; output operations write bytes starting at the file pointer and advance the file pointer past the bytes written. Output operations that write past the current end of the implied array cause the array to be extended. The file pointer can be read by the {@code getFilePointer} method and set by the {@code seek} method. <p> It is generally true of all the reading routines in this class that if end-of-file is reached before the desired number of bytes has been read, an {@code EOFException} (which is a kind of {@code IOException}) is thrown. If any byte cannot be read for any reason other than end-of-file, an {@code IOException} other than {@code EOFException} is thrown. In particular, an {@code IOException} may be thrown if the stream has been closed. @author unascribed @since JDK1.0 */ var RandomAccessFile = { /**Returns the opaque file descriptor object associated with this stream. @return {Object {java.io.FileDescriptor}} the file descriptor object associated with this stream. @exception IOException if an I/O error occurs. @see java.io.FileDescriptor */ getFD : function( ) {}, /**Returns the unique {@link java.nio.channels.java.io.FileChannel java.io.FileChannel} object associated with this file. <p> The {@link java.nio.channels.FileChannel#position() position} of the returned channel will always be equal to this object's file-pointer offset as returned by the {@link #getFilePointer getFilePointer} method.
