----------------------------------------
Hello Jacques,
Well actually this is a "background task" which is not completed yet. For
example {{UtilXml}} and {{FileUtil}} are still using the old API. I would find
it convenient to keep this issue open to avoid having to create a new ticket
each time I am contributing something related to topic.
However this is maybe not matching OFBiz JIRA conventions, So feel free to
propose an alternative process if that's the case.
> Use ‘java.nio.file’ API instead of ‘java.io’ when manipulating files

> Since Java 1.7 the {{java.nio.file}} package provides a more modern way to
> manipulate the filesystem than {{java.io}}. For example the presence of a
> Path class allows more typesafe manipulation of file and directory names than
> using plain strings.
> Currently OFBiz uses {{java.io}} exclusively but it would improve safety,
> maintainability and readability to move to the new {{java.nio.file}} API
> instead.
> Some documentation regarding how to migrate to new API is available:
> * https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/essential/io/fileio.html
