[jira] [Created] (KAFKA-13929) Replace File.createNewFile() with Files.createFile()

Divij Vaidya created KAFKA-13929:
------------------------------------

             Summary: Replace File.createNewFile() with Files.createFile()
                 Key: KAFKA-13929
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-13929
             Project: Kafka
          Issue Type: Sub-task
            Reporter: Divij Vaidya
            Assignee: Divij Vaidya


File.createNewFile() returns a boolean signifying whether the file creation was successful or not.

There are multiple places in the Kafka code base where we are not checking the value of the returned boolean. 

Replacing it with the Files.createFile() API will decrease the chances of inadvertent bugs in the code base since Files.createFile() API thrown exceptions when the creation is not successful.
