Good day.
I'm having quite a time with the resolve() function of the Tizen Filesystem
API object.

https://developer.tizen.org/dev-guide/2.2.1/org.tizen.web.device.apireference/tizen/filesystem.html
The dev-guide here states "To access other paths out of virtual root, for
example '/tmp/', 'file:///tmp' can be used as location parameter."

So I'm here using the filesystem.resolve() call and I'm able to see
'file:///tmp', but it's returning false for 'isDirectory' and attempting to
access it as a directory provides an 'InvalidValuesError'.

To make matters worse, I can't seem to access any other paths out of
virtual root that may be helpful, for example '/', to see my way around.
I'd hate to just assume that my desired filename is not in use, and
accidentally overwrite some important system documents. Then again, I'm not
even sure what part of the filesystem 'file://' attempts to access.

If you've experienced success accessing paths outside of virtual root, let
me know. How did you do it? What did you accomplish? Where on the
filesystem does all of this 'accessing' take place? Can the device's root
folder be accessed through the Filesystem API?

Thanks in advance!
