However, I am unclear on why the test fails since the filesystem
blobstore should convert user input /
to backend fs separator \ on Windows. That is to say, code which runs
on Linux and Windows *should*
behave identically, although in previous releases they did not.
PR to prevent the test failure here:
https://github.com/jclouds/jclouds/pull/1162
I'm not sure this change is correct, given that (as Andrew G pointed
out) the code is actually *not* expected to fail on Windows (and thus
the test is expected to pass).
From a quick local test, this test was already failing in 2.0.2 (when it
was first added [1]), so the original implementation may simply have
been incomplete. Since we have't seen any related comments or issues, as
far as I am aware, I'd agree that this is probably not a reason to stop
the release.
Would it make sense to try to fix the underlying problem, or at least
open a bug to track this, though?
