TODO

  • Improve file descriptors in vfs/file_system.py so they are re-useable.
  • Add a way for the VirtualFileSystem to give back dynamic files, such as /proc/self/status, /proc/self/status but also /dev/urandom.
  • Library consumers must be able to easily rebuild the needed Java classes for a native library, which are used by the native library through the JNIEnv.
