I was just wondering if a consensus has been reached on the issue of DOS short/long path names as used in the mp2 tests (to recall, in some of the tests, one ends up comparing a short path to a long path name, which fails as a string comparison, but will pass if one converts them both to, eg, the long path name). As it doesn't look like File::Spec is intended to handle this sort of thing, as it involves interaction with the file system to get the long path name, there's a few options: - wait for a wrapper around File::Spec to handle this sort of thing? - extend Apache::TestUtil to have a t_canonpath, like the current t_catfile, which for Win32 uses Win32::GetLongPathName() to convert to the long path name; - rather than a t_canonpath and t_catfile (and possibly other t_* functions as wrappers around File::Spec functions), use a t_file_cmp() function which just returns t_cmp for Unix and does the long path name conversion/comparison for Win32?
