/****************************************************************
 * CreateFlag specifies the file create semantic. Users can combine flags like: <br>
 * <code>
 * EnumSet.of(CreateFlag.CREATE, CreateFlag.APPEND)
 * <code>
 * <p>
 * 
 * Use the CreateFlag as follows:
 * <ol>
 * <li> CREATE - to create a file if it does not exist, 
 * else throw FileAlreadyExists.</li>
 * <li> APPEND - to append to a file if it exists, 
 * else throw FileNotFoundException.</li>
 * <li> OVERWRITE - to truncate a file if it exists, 
 * else throw FileNotFoundException.</li>
 * <li> CREATE|APPEND - to create a file if it does not exist, 
 * else append to an existing file.</li>
 * <li> CREATE|OVERWRITE - to create a file if it does not exist, 
 * else overwrite an existing file.</li>
 * <li> SYNC_BLOCK - to force closed blocks to the disk device.
 * In addition {@link Syncable#hsync()} should be called after each write,
 * if true synchronous behavior is required.</li>
 * <li> LAZY_PERSIST - Create the block on transient storage (RAM) if
 * available.</li>
 * <li> APPEND_NEWBLOCK - Append data to a new block instead of end of the last
 * partial block.</li>
 * </ol>
 * 
 * Following combinations are not valid and will result in
 * {@link HadoopIllegalArgumentException}:
 * <ol>
 * <li> APPEND|OVERWRITE</li>
 * <li> CREATE|APPEND|OVERWRITE</li>
 * </ol>
