  43      * Converts a path string, or a sequence of strings that when joined form
  44      * a path string, to a {@code Path}. If {@code more} does not specify any
  45      * elements then the value of the {@code first} parameter is the path string
  46      * to convert. If {@code more} specifies one or more elements then each
  47      * non-empty string, including {@code first}, is considered to be a sequence
  48      * of name elements (see {@link Path}) and is joined to form a path string.
  49      * The details as to how the Strings are joined is provider specific but
  50      * typically they will be joined using the {@link FileSystem#getSeparator
  51      * name-separator} as the separator. For example, if the name separator is
  52      * "{@code /}" and {@code getPath("/foo","bar","gus")} is invoked, then the
  53      * path string {@code "/foo/bar/gus"} is converted to a {@code Path}.
  54      * A {@code Path} representing an empty path is returned if {@code first}
  55      * is the empty string and {@code more} does not contain any non-empty
  56      * strings.
  57      *
  58      * <p> The {@code Path} is obtained by invoking the {@link FileSystem#getPath
  59      * getPath} method of the {@link FileSystems#getDefault default} {@link
  60      * FileSystem}.
  61      *
  62      * <p> Note that while this method is very convenient, using it will imply
  63      * an assumed reference to the default {@code FileSystem} and limit the
  64      * utility of the calling code. Hence it should not be used in library code
  65      * intended for flexible reuse. A more flexible alternative is to use an
  66      * existing {@code Path} instance as an anchor, such as:
  67      * <pre>
  68      *     Path dir = ...
  69      *     Path path = dir.resolve("file");
  70      * </pre>
  71      *
