kapil soni updated IO-402:
--------------------------
Attachment: FILEUTILS_UNITTC_OVERWRITE.patch
FILEUTILS_OVERWRITE.patch
This is an approach to get this.
if overwrite flag is false ( which is by default true) then original file if
exist is backed up with integer index at the end. for ex: somefile.txt.1 and so
on.
I added patch for source and test both.
Please have a look.
Thanks

> I came across a small annoyance at work today. I have code that takes a file
> and copies it to a mounted directory on a remote server. I am using
> FileUtils.copyFileToDirectory() to do the move, but it does not have an
> overwrite flag. If something goes wrong with the file transfer over the
> network, and only part of the file is transferred, all subsequent attempts
> are blocked by the fact that the file "already exists." I would like to see
> another overloaded copyFileToDirectory() method with a flag to overwrite the
> file if it already exists. The current behavior is to throw an IoException.
> Thanks!
