Niall Pemberton commented on IO-77:
-----------------------------------
I generally use IllegalArgumentException, but you're right, looking thru
FileUtils and IOUtiles the vast majority throw a NullPointerException - either
explicitly or otherwise. I'll leave this for the moment for further discussion
to see if anyone else chimes in - if not I'll revert
> [io] add a convenience FileUtils.move(File src, File dest)

> I'm using FileUtils as it partially solves the missing "move" method for File,
> that is so simple to do in unix shell.
> A full implementation in FileUtils may be great :
> static boolean FileUtils.move(File src, File dest)
> throws IOException
> {
> boolean rename = src.renameTo(dest);
> if (!rename)
> {
> copyFile(file, dest);
> file.delete();
> }
> }
