/**
 * 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</code> method and set by the <code>seek</code> 
 * 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</code> (which is a kind of 
 * <code>IOException</code>) is thrown. If any byte cannot be read for 
 * any reason other than end-of-file, an <code>IOException</code> other 
 * than <code>EOFException</code> is thrown. In particular, an 
 * <code>IOException</code> may be thrown if the stream has been closed.

     * The <tt>"rws"</tt> and <tt>"rwd"</tt> modes work much like the {@link
     * java.nio.channels.FileChannel#force(boolean) force(boolean)} method of
     * the {@link java.nio.channels.FileChannel} class, passing arguments of
     * <tt>true</tt> and <tt>false</tt>, respectively, except that they always
     * apply to every I/O operation and are therefore often more efficient.  If
     * the file resides on a local storage device then when an invocation of a
     * method of this class returns it is guaranteed that all changes made to
     * the file by that invocation will have been written to that device.  This
     * is useful for ensuring that critical information is not lost in the
     * event of a system crash.  If the file does not reside on a local device
     * then no such guarantee is made.
     *
     * <p> The <tt>"rwd"</tt> mode can be used to reduce the number of I/O
     * operations performed.  Using <tt>"rwd"</tt> only requires updates to the
     * file's content to be written to storage; using <tt>"rws"</tt> requires
     * updates to both the file's content and its metadata to be written, which
     * generally requires at least one more low-level I/O operation.
