Aaron Digulla commented on IO-237:
----------------------------------
I suggest to close this.
With Java 5, you can use the generic {{Arrays.asList()}} for this.
If you need to modify the list, you need to wrap the call in {{new
ArrayList()}}. Due to internal optimizations, this is a pretty fast operation.
> Add Additional toFiles() and toURLs() Methods to FileUtils

> I suggest modifying the signatures of the toFiles() and toURLs() to use
> varargs since that approach will automatically accept arrays and also allow
> the user to send an arbitrary number of them.
> Convert File[] toFiles(URL[]) to File[] toFiles(URL...)
> Convert URL[] toURLs(File[]) to URL[] toURLs(File...)
> I also suggest adding new methods for converting a collection of URLs or
> Files to an array, or to a List.
> File[] toFiles(Collection<URL>)
> List<File> toFilesList(URL...)
> List<File> toFilesList(Collection<URL>)
> URL[] toURLs(Collection<File>)
> List<URL> toURLsList(File...)
> List<URL> toURLsList(Collection<File>)
