http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=31589 Problems specific to OpenVMS ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2004-10-08 11:58 ------- Yes, file system differences could certainly account for the majority of the test failures. Touchtests: Hmm, I'll have to look into this a little deeper. exec() return codes: On VMS, success is odd, usually 1, but odd nonetheless, and failure is even. I'll check with the JVM folks and see if there is some kind of logical name we can specify to tell the JVM to behave differently. isDirectory: isDirectory does indeed work on OpenVMS. However, on VMS the directory is a file named "somefoldername.DIR" (case of the extension is important, BTW), so if there is a file in the same directory as "somefoldername.DIR" with the name "somefoldername" (no extension), then when the call is made to File.isDirectory(new File("/a/b/c/somefoldername")), false is returned. I suspect that is what is happening. Note that if there is no file named "somefoldername" (no extension) then File.isDirectory(new File ("/a/b/c/somefoldername") will return true. More on touch and exec a little later today. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
