I have a java.nio.file.Path object that represents some directory (e.g., /var/log). I want a new Path object representing a file within the directory (e.g., /var/log/something.log). I have been using

Path logDir = ...
Path logFile = Paths.get(logDir.toString(), "something.log");

But it seems silly to have to turn logDir into a string, then construct the new Path object. How can I get the logFile object but without using toString? E.g.,

Path logDir = ...
Path logFile = Paths.get(logDir, "something.log"); // Doesn't exist

`logDir.resolve`? Check this http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8227499/how-to-access-a-sub-file-folder-in-java-7-java-nio-file-path – anoopelias Feb 19 '13 at 19:40
