Re: FTPFile check if path is absolute

2017-09-14 Thread Bernd Eckenfels 
VFS has no real/clear concept of relative file path (at least not for FileName 
or File objects). For some providers (like FTP) there are some hacks in regards 
to login directories. So yes maybe isAbsolute() can and should be implemented, 
however it is not clear how.

Do you have a specific usecase?

Subject: FTPFile check if path is absolute

Hi,

When i check;

https://github.com/apache/commons-net/blob/trunk/src/main/java/org/apache/commons/net/ftp/FTPFile.java

This class does not have such a method like .isAbsolute().

Is there a specific reason why we dont have such method?
Or do you have a suggested way to do such check?

Thanks
