> Make java.nio.file.Files a DGM class
> ------------------------------------
>
>                 Key: GROOVY-6711
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-6711
>             Project: Groovy
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: groovy-jdk
>            Reporter: Guillaume Laforge
>
> The java.nio.file.Files class contains only DGM-friendly static methods taking a "self" first parameter, just like Groovy's own DGM class methods.
> Instead of having to do
> {code}
> Files.delete(path)
> {code}
> we could support out of the box:
> {code}
> path.delete()
> {code}
> There are tons of useful methods such as: copy(), delete(), isHidden(), etc.
> We might have to tweak methods like newInputStream() added already in the NIO2 module for consistency and de-duplication.
