@Override is a compile annotation so we could have source be 1.6 and target 1.5 for that. Do you have a pressing need to upgrade to commons-io 2.3? If that is a necessity than I am OK with upgrading to Java 6 for the target. IOW, I'm not in favor of upgrading just because "Java 5 is dead" but

Yes - I noticed that quite a while ago and have mentioned that VFS 3.0 should be targeted at that. If you would like to help get that started we would be happy to have the help! Ralph On Jun 15, 2012, at 8:45 AM, James Ring wrote: > Has anybody looked at the Java 7 NIO File API? > > http://d

Has anybody looked at the Java 7 NIO File API? http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/nio/file/package-summary.html I think VFS should be able to make great contributions to that by porting filesystem implementations to it. On Fri, Jun 15, 2012 at 7:46 AM, garydgregory wrote: > (posting
