[jira] [Updated] (OFBIZ-11192) Use ‘java.nio.file’ API instead of ‘java.io’ when manipulating files

["Mathieu Lirzin (Jira)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-11192?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Mathieu Lirzin updated OFBIZ-11192:
-----------------------------------
    Description: 
Since Java 1.7 the {{java.nio.file}} package provides a more modern way to manipulate the filesystem than {{java.io}}. For example the presence of a Path class allows more typesafe manipulation of file and directory names than using plain strings.

Currently OFBiz uses {{java.io}} exclusively but it would improve safety, maintainability and readability to move to the new {{java.nio.file}} API instead.

Some documentation regarding how to migrate to new API is available:

* https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/essential/io/fileio.html
* https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/essential/io/legacy.html#mapping
