> Fix for [FLUME-1373] (Remove hardcoded file separator in HDFSEventSink )
> regressed the HDFS in Windows. The fix was done per PMD/Findbugs alert. The
> fix was to replace '/' with the OS file separator. The problem is that the
> code is not trying to build a local path; it's trying to combine strings to
> form a URI. In Linux, OS separator is '/' and this is not a problem. In
> windows, OS separator is '\' and therefore you end up with paths like
> hdfs://foo\var. The best fix would be to use URL objects but new
> URL("hdfs://..") throws unknown protocol HDFS. The most cost effective fix
> seems to be revert to hardcoding '/'
