REPORT #724 Details.

Project: Ant
Category: Bug Report
SubCategory: New Bug Report
Class: swbug
State: received
Priority: high
Severity: serious
Confidence: public
Environment: 
   Release: 1.2
   JVM Release: Sun JDK 1.3
   Operating System: Windows 2000
   OS Release: --
   Platform: Intel

Synopsis: 
ANT does not work in directories whose name contains a "#" character

Description:
ANT fails to read files in directories with a "#" character because the 
underlying XML parser considers the filename to be a URL (internally it adds 
"file:" to the path. The XML parser then considers the "#" as a anchor 
delimiter within the web page.

This bug is particularly nasty for us since we use the Continuus configuration 
management system which likes to place projects under a directory named 
projectName#userName. This bug renders ANT unusable in our environment.
