I think we should just add an additional method with the file signature
and do the resolving in the method passing a String.

That way we keep Backward compatibility and fix the bug, like we have done 
before.

    public void setOutput(File out) { .... }

    public void setOutput(String out) {
        setOutput(resolveFile(out));
    }
