Instantiates a GlobalMemory object.

Returns:

A memory object.

getPowerSources

PowerSource[] getPowerSources()

Instantiates an array of PowerSource objects, representing batteries, etc.

Returns:

An array of PowerSource objects or an empty array if none are present.

getFileSystem

FileSystem getFileSystem()

Instantiates a FileSystem object.

Returns:

A FileSystem object.

getFileStores

OSFileStore[] getFileStores()

Instantiates an array of OSFileStore objects, representing a storage pool, device, partition, volume, concrete file system or other implementation specific means of file storage.

Returns:

An array of OSFileStore objects or an empty array if none are present.

getDiskStores

HWDiskStore[] getDiskStores()

Instantiates an array of HWDiskStore objects, representing a disk pool

Returns:

An array of HWDiskStore objects or an empty array if none are present.

getNetworkIFs

NetworkIF[] getNetworkIFs()

getUsbDevices

UsbDevice[] getUsbDevices()

Instantiates an array of UsbDevice objects, representing devices connected via a usb port (including internal devices). The top level devices returned from this method are the USB Controllers; connected hubs and devices in its device tree share that controller's bandwidth

Returns:

An array of UsbDevice objects representing the USB Controllers and devices connected to them, or an empty array if none are present
