[jira] [Created] (IO-748) FileUtils.moveToDirectory() exception documentation and exception message error

Dirk Heinrichs created IO-748:
---------------------------------

             Summary: FileUtils.moveToDirectory() exception documentation and exception message error
                 Key: IO-748
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IO-748
             Project: Commons IO
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Utilities
    Affects Versions: 2.11.0
            Reporter: Dirk Heinrichs


When executing
{code:java}
FileUtils.moveToDirectory(new File('foobarbaz'), new File('/tmp'), false){code}
while "foobarbaz" doesn't exist, I get
{code:java}
java.io.FileNotFoundException: Source 'foobarbaz' does not exist {code}
but the documentation doesn't mention "FileNotFoundException".

OTOH, if "foobarbaz" exists both as source and in the destination directory, I get
{code:java}
org.apache.commons.io.FileExistsException: File element in parameter 'null' already exists: '/tmp/foobarbaz'
{code}
What's hat "parameter 'null'"?
