Hi,
I don't know if it makes sense at this time. But if File and Path had both
implemented CharSequence.
We could just accept a CharSequence for every method that needs a
path/file. Allowing to parse along either a File, Path or String.
I've have done myself in some APIs that uses tree-based stru

Hi A

Hi Andrew,
The NIO APIs (Java 1.4) were intended to supplement the pre-existing Java I/O
APIs and this effort was continued in the NIO.2 APIs (Java 7). The Path
interface is part of the latter. My impression is that the intent was more to
supersede the older APIs than to e
Many classes such as:

https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/11/docs/api/java.base/java/util/zip/ZipFile.html
have constructors that use the File API or String but no constructor that takes
Path. Is there
