Java OCA OCP Practice Question 2892

Question

For the copy() method shown here, assume that the source exists as regular file and that the target does not. What is the result of the following code? 

Path path1 = Paths.get("./data.txt").normalize(); // k1 
Path path2 = Paths.get("java.png"); 
Files.copy(path1,path2,StandardCopyOption.COPY_ATTRIBUTES);  //k2 
System.out.println(Files.isSameFile(path1, path2)); //k3
  • A. It will output false.
  • B. It will output true.
  • C. It does not compile because of line k1.
  • D. It does not compile because of line k2.
  • E. It does not compile because of line k3.
  • F. It compiles but throws an exception at runtime.


A.

Note

The code compiles and runs without issue, so C, D, E, and F are incorrect.

Even though the file is copied with attributes preserved, the file is considered a separate file, so the output is false and A is correct and B is incorrect.

Remember, isSameFile()returns true only if the files pointed to in the file system are the same, without regard to the file contents.
