== Why is this an issue?
The ``++Files.exists++`` method has noticeably poor performance in JDK 8, and can slow an application significantly when used to check files that don't actually exist.
The same goes for ``++Files.notExists++``, ``++Files.isDirectory++`` and ``++Files.isRegularFile++`` from ``++java.nio.file++`` package.
*Note* that this rule is automatically disabled when the project's ``++sonar.java.source++`` is not 8.
=== Noncompliant code example
[source,java]
----
Path myPath;
if(java.nio.file.Files.exists(myPath)) { // Noncompliant
// do something
}
----
=== Compliant solution
[source,java]
----
Path myPath;
if(myPath.toFile().exists())) {
// do something
}
