---------------------------------------
> Method ignores exceptional return value

> Key: NUTCH-2850
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NUTCH-2850
> Project: Nutch
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: dumpers
> Affects Versions: 1.18
> Reporter: Lewis John McGibbney
> Assignee: Lewis John McGibbney
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 1.19
>
>
> In class org.apache.nutch.tools.FileDumper
> In method org.apache.nutch.tools.FileDumper.dump(File, File, String[],
> boolean, boolean, boolean)
> Called method java.io.File.mkdirs()
> At FileDumper.java:[line 237]
> Exceptional return value of java.io.File.mkdirs() ignored in
> org.apache.nutch.tools.FileDumper.dump(File, File, String[], boolean,
> boolean, boolean)
> This method returns a value that is not checked. The return value should be
> checked since it can indicate an unusual or unexpected function execution.
> For example, the File.delete() method returns false if the file could not be
> successfully deleted (rather than throwing an Exception). If you don't check
> the result, you won't notice if the method invocation signals unexpected
> behavior by returning an atypical return value.
