NIOFileSystem has two APIs:
It was immediately obvious to me that moveItem
moves the source to the destination, i.e. source is gone after the move.
But for replaceItem
, I thought that it would only replace the destination and leave the source intact. In reality however, replaceItem
is the same as moveItem
, except that it also removes the destination if it already exists.
Really, I think whether replacing the destination is okay should be a parameter to moveItem
and not a separate replaceItem
API.
