Ah right, I had forgotten entirely about the POSIX subsystem (gee, I can't imagine why). The NT kernel fully supports case-sensitive file names, but the Win32 subsystem mucks it up.

It's not that simple in the Windows world.

It's not necessarily that straightforward. If the file were renamed outside of the IDE and the new name differed only by case, there would be no reason for the IDE to update the csproj file automatically. ...and if we're going to be strictly pedantic, casing isn't an OS thing -- it's an FS thing :P -- Curt Hagenlocher [EMAIL PROTECTED]<mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ Ironruby-core mailing list [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/ironruby-core -- Michael Letterle [Polymath Prokrammer] http://blog.prokrams.com
