    File path object.

    A file path represents a location for a file-like-object and can be
    organized into a hierarchy; a file path can can children which are
    themselves file paths.

    A file path has a name which unique identifies it in the context of its
    parent (if it has one); a file path can not have two children with the same
    name.  This name is referred to as the file path's "base name".

    A series of such names can be used to locate nested children of a file
    path; such a series is referred to as the child's "path", relative to the
    parent.  In this case, each name in the path is referred to as a "path
    segment"; the child's base name is the segment in the path.

    When representing a file path as a string, a "path separator" is used to
    delimit the path segments within the string.  For a file system path, that
    would be C{os.sep}.

    Note that the values of child names may be restricted.  For example, a file
    system path will not allow the use of the path separator in a name, and
    certain names (e.g. C{"."} and C{".."}) may be reserved or have special

    I am a path on the filesystem that only permits 'downwards' access.

    Instantiate me with a pathname (for example,
    FilePath('/home/myuser/public_html')) and I will attempt to only provide
    access to files which reside inside that path.  I may be a path to a file,
    a directory, or a file which does not exist.

    The correct way to use me is to instantiate me, and then do ALL filesystem
    access through me.  In other words, do not import the 'os' module; if you
    need to open a file, call my 'open' method.  If you need to list a
    directory, call my 'path' method.

    Even if you pass me a relative path, I will convert that to an absolute
    path internally.

    Note: although time-related methods do return floating-point results, they
    may still be only second resolution depending on the platform and the last
    value passed to L{os.stat_float_times}.  If you want greater-than-second
    precision, call C{os.stat_float_times(True)}, or use Python 2.5.
    Greater-than-second precision is only available in Windows on Python2.5 and
    later.

    The type of C{path} when instantiating decides the mode of the L{FilePath}.
    That is, C{FilePath(b"/")} will return a L{bytes} mode L{FilePath}, and
    C{FilePath(u"/")} will return a L{unicode} mode L{FilePath}.
    C{FilePath("/")} will return a L{bytes} mode L{FilePath} on Python 2, and a
    L{unicode} mode L{FilePath} on Python 3.

    Methods that return a new L{FilePath} use the type of the given subpath to
    decide its mode. For example, C{FilePath(b"/").child(u"tmp")} will return a
    L{unicode} mode L{FilePath}.

    @type alwaysCreate: L{bool}
    @ivar alwaysCreate: When opening this file, only succeed if the file does
        not already exist.

    @type path: L{bytes} or L{unicode}
    @ivar path: The path from which 'downward' traversal is permitted.

    @ivar statinfo: (WARNING: statinfo is deprecated as of Twisted 15.0.0 and
        will become a private attribute)
        The currently cached status information about the file on
        the filesystem that this L{FilePath} points to.  This attribute is
        L{None} if the file is in an indeterminate state (either this
        L{FilePath} has not yet had cause to call C{stat()} yet or
        L{FilePath.changed} indicated that new information is required), 0 if
        C{stat()} was called and returned an error (i.e. the path did not exist
        when C{stat()} was called), or a C{stat_result} object that describes
        the last known status of the underlying file (or directory, as the case
        may be).  Trust me when I tell you that you do not want to use this
        attribute.  Instead, use the methods on L{FilePath} which give you
        information about it, like C{getsize()}, C{isdir()},
        C{getModificationTime()}, and so on.

        Replace the file at this path with a new file that contains the given

        On UNIX-like platforms, this method does its best to ensure that by the
        time this method returns, either the old contents I{or} the new
        contents of the file will be present at this path for subsequent
        readers regardless of premature device removal, program crash, or power
        loss, making the following assumptions:

            - your filesystem is journaled (i.e. your filesystem will not

            - your filesystem's C{rename()} is atomic

            - your filesystem will not discard new data while preserving new
              metadata (see U{http://mjg59.livejournal.com/108257.html} for
              more detail)

        On most versions of Windows there is no atomic C{rename()} (see
        U{http://bit.ly/win32-overwrite} for more information), so this method
        is slightly less helpful.  There is a small window where the file at
        this path may be deleted before the new file is moved to replace it:
        however, the new file will be fully written and flushed beforehand so
        in the unlikely event that there is a crash at that point, it should be
        possible for the user to manually recover the new version of their
        data.  In the future, Twisted will support atomic file moves on those
        versions of Windows which I{do} support them: see U{Twisted ticket
        3004<http://twistedmatrix.com/trac/ticket/3004>}.
