I can confirm that using "NUL" or "nul" work fine in the above code,

I don't know the context for your question

FWIW - that bug report states that they ran into this even when using "nul" and not just "nul:". So there might be something more going on here and am just waiting to see if they can provide us a build file to reproduce this issue.

I received some inputs on that Ant bugzilla issue. Based on that, I was able to reproduce the exception and IMO it's a bug in Files.newOutputStream() API. I have opened https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8263898 with the relevant details. I considered this a bug and took the liberty of opening that JBS issue because as I note in that issue, this only happens specifically when TRUNCATE_EXISTING (default) option gets used against "nul" on Windows.
