Peter Schuller commented on CASSANDRA-3734:
-------------------------------------------
Without going back to check what the code was doing, if
{{createTemporaryDirectory()}} does the hole special hoop jumping to get around
the fact that temporary directory creation is not available in Java, with JDK7
one can finally just use {{Files.createTemporaryDirectory()}} from nio2.
> Support native link w/o JNA in Java7

> Java7 provides native support for hard links:
> http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/nio/file/Files.html#createLink(java.nio.file.Path,
> java.nio.file.Path)
> We should prefer this method when Java7 is the host.
