File.createNewFile()returns a boolean signifying whether the file creation was successful or not. There are multiple places in the Kafka code base where we are not checking the value of the returned boolean.Replacing it with the
Files.createFile()API will decrease the chances of inadvertent bugs in the code base sinceFiles.createFile()API thrown exceptions when the creation is not successful.Note that this is one of many PRs which would help us leverage new features introduced in NIO.2 Java APIs. The parent task is listed at https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-13928
