Samraj commented on IO-783:
---------------------------
Verified the code and that was wrong implementation. I have Unix path or EMail
path. In that path colon is eligible. When i try to parse that value in windows
machine, I am getting error. If I run that code in linux, it is working fine.
String parsing should not contain OS check.
