Simon, If you have read my message more carefully, you'd see that what I'm asking for, ultimately, is that IDEA be consistent with Sun's javac. That will mean that any project based on javac can be imported to IDEA (currently not the case).
Regardless of how you or I feel about Windows, a very significant share of Java development is done on it. I want to continue "developing with pleasure". If that means asking for IDEA to work around the limitations of my OS's JDK (consistent with javac), then that's what I meant. In any event, Dmiter already disowned this issue, so I doubt that it will be addressed. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Simon Roberts Sent: Sunday, June 30, 2002 2:25 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Eap-bugs] Re: 629 package names map to case-sensitive directories under Windows "Will Ekiel" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... > In general, I think IDEA should handle all package to directory mappings > in a case insensitive fashion. No no no no! Java, and most filesystems, are case-sensative. We can't have IDEA munging around with them, and it's perfectly (AFAIK) valid to have two different packages with the same name and different capitalization. Just because windows and/or your version control system is too stupid to preserve names properly, don't break the IDE to fix it. -1 at least. _______________________________________________ Eap-bugs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.jetbrains.com/mailman/listinfo/eap-bugs
