When trying to setup the build matrix for Ivy, I got hit by the spaces in the paths for the tests. It was due to the well known broken File.toURL(). I have done a broadcast search on Ivy and fix it (it was mainly the unit tests which were broken).
So decided to look into IvyDE too and I have found some quirks too. And I looked into Ant, it is totally clean except Locator.fileToURL(File) But then looking at the javadocs, it made me afraid to change anything, especially the javadoc of the class: "Be very careful when making changes to this class, as a break will upset a lot of people." :) Since we support Java 1.4, and even now 1.5, I see no reason to not replace the implementation of Locator.fileToURL by a simple file.toURI().toURL(). Am I wrong ? Or is there some code which rely on the broken behavior ?
