-Good catch!-
-For sockets it may return 0, too - not for files.-

Sorry, no problem at all:
{quote}
If the length of b is zero, then no bytes are read and 0 is returned; 
otherwise, there is an attempt to read at least one byte. If no byte is 
available because the stream is at the end of the file, the value -1 is 
returned; otherwise, at least one byte is read and stored into b.

>             Project: Lucene - Core
>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 4.0
>            Reporter: Adrien Grand
>            Priority: Minor
>             Fix For: 4.1, 5.0

> IOUtils.copy has the following lines of code:
> {noformat}
>       while ((len = fis.read(buffer)) > 0) {
>         fos.write(buffer, 0, len);
>       }
> {noformat}
> The problem is that the fact that {{InputStream.read}} returns 0 does not 
> mean that it reached the end of the stream (there is -1 for this), so this 
> method might not copy the whole file in rare cases.
