Difference between Files#delete(Path) and File#delete()
by Premraj 29 Aug '12

29 Aug '12

Hi all, I'm not sure whether this is the right place for this question but if in case its not please direct me to the correct forum. I was trying to shift from old file API to NIO API (using JDK 7 update 6) but I found that on Windows (I have Windows 7) platform if I have read only file then File#delete() call will delete the file while Files#delete(Path) fails with exception (java.nio.file.AccessDeniedException), I'm not sure whether this is known issue but since Files#delete(Path) offers better error handling I would like to use Files#delete(Path). My question is - Is there any workaround for this problem in NIO API or should I stick to old File API because of this. Also I was curios why Files#delete(Path) throws exception but File#delete() executes successfully. PS: I asked this question[1] on stackoverflow but did not get any good response. 1. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12139482/difference-between-filesdeletep… -- Premraj

[PATCH] Review request: 6962637 TEST_BUG: java/io/File/MaxPathLength.java may fail in busy system
by Eric Wang 28 Aug '12

28 Aug '12

Hi, Please help to review the fix below for bug **6962637 <http://monaco.us.oracle.com/detail.jsf?cr=6962637> TEST_BUG: java/io/File/MaxPathLength.java may fail in busy system http://dl.dropbox.com/u/90659131/fixes/6962637/webrev/index.html Root cause is the test is not reliable when system is busy, if disk space is changed by some other program, test can fail. so the fix is to check file.length() instead of disk space. Regards, Eric
