Handling all path by java.nio.file.Path

All path operations are now handled by java.nio.file.Path instead of string concatenation.

Hello, Before integrating the change, i would like to know whether the suggested changes were made in order to correct a bug.

The use of Java nio resolve is a bit more costly in comparison of the previous String interface and force the use of toString methods everywhere including in some of my projects extending this tool and overall hinder the global readability.

I don't really mind the change and will likely integrate it, but I would like to know its motivation. Best,

Hi,

I made this change because when using data7 for the first time, I specified my path this way:

ResourcesPath path = new ResourcesPath(/foo/bar);

This caused binaryPath in ResourcesPath.java to be /foo/barbinary/, due to string concatenation, and caused exceptions to be thrown. It took me a while to figure this out.

Path library can also handle file separator for Linux and Windows, / and \ etc.

There are several advantages of handling path with library instead of string. This PR is intended to avoid future bugs and improve usability.

Regards, Zimin

I might also do another PR to increase the usage of java.nio.file.Path, so that we can avoid calling toString() everywhere. For example changing Utils.checkFolderDestination(String) to Utils.checkFolderDestination(Path).
