Boris Unckel created IO-707:
-------------------------------
Summary: Add optional early error detection as postcondition check
Key: IO-707
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IO-707
Project: Commons IO
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Utilities
Affects Versions: 2.8.0
Reporter: Boris Unckel
The current version does not include an optional way to detect errors with the
underlying filesystem and/or logic early.
Due to performance reason and/or design decision, the result of delete or
create directories/files does not include a check wheter the delete or create
was successful. It "only" relies on trust to the underlying operations of the
JDK and/or the completeness of own unit tests.
To have the option to check things, without having additional commons-io
proprietary options and without a performance impact for regular operations the
Java 1.4 keyword "assert" should be used.
Current project profits in case of detail analysis. Downstream projects having
own unit tests for IO will profit.
PR with proposal will follow.
