Where is the java.nio.file file located

Question

I am reading java documentation that tells me that a java.nio.file namespace must exist. But when I try to import it, the precompiler complains that it does not exist.

What?

Answer 1

java.nio.file is included in Java 7. It is not in Java 6 or earlier.

You should read the JDK7 docs .

Until then, you were stuck in a heap of annoying trouble, which is java.io.File .
