-------------------------------

             Summary: FileUtils.listFiles does not list matching files if File 
parameter is a symlink
                 Key: IO-741
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IO-741
             Project: Commons IO
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Utilities
    Affects Versions: 2.9.0
            Reporter: Zach Sherman


This is a regression from 2.6.0.  We are using the following FileUtils utility 
function to list matching files under a directory:


{noformat}
public static Collection<File> listFiles(File directory, String[] extensions, 
boolean recursive){noformat}
 

This used to return all matching files in 2.6.0 when the directory was a 
symlink, but it no longer does. Breaking through the code in a debugger, I was 
able to manually add the FileVisitOptions.FOLLOW_LINKS option, but this is not 
specifiable from an external caller outside of commons-io.
