tza commented on IO-700:
------------------------
Hi, thanks for the fast response.
I created a pull request which contains method overload, tests and additional
javadoc for the moveFile which uses "copy and delete" on other file system
which also results in the IOException if lastModified cannot be set.

> Provide FileUtils.moveFile(srcFile, dstFile, preserveFileDate)
> --------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: IO-700
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IO-700
> Project: Commons IO
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 2.8.0
> Reporter: tza
> Priority: Major
> Time Spent: 10m
> Remaining Estimate: 0h
>
> The current implementation 2.8.0 throws an Exception, if moveFiles or
> copyFiles (with preserveFileDate=true) cannot update the lastModifiedDate.
> This was not the case in 2.6.
>
> For FileUtils.moveFile the copyFile(File, File) method is used, which results
> in a copy with preserveFileDate=true. Could you provide a method overload to
> moveFile similiar to copyFile.
>
> {code:java}
> public static void moveFile(final File srcFile, final File destFile) throws
> IOException {
> moveFile(srcFile, destFile, true);
> }
> public static void moveFile(final File srcFile, final File destFile, boolean
> preserveFileDate) throws IOException {
> ...
> copyFile(srcFile, destFile, preserveFileDate);
> }
> {code}
>
> (We have a cifs mount where the server is not allowing the update)
