Andrew Schwartzmeyer commented on MESOS-6735:
---------------------------------------------
Commit dd87bd416 updated the Windows implementation to use {{GetFullPathName}}
instead of {{_fullpath}}, which also has this problem:
{quote}This function does not verify that the resulting path and file name are
valid, or that they see an existing file on the associated volume.
{quote}
> `os::realpath` semantics differ between Windows and POSIX

> `os::realpath` on Unix should error out if the path does not exist. On
> Windows, the implementation is backed by `_fullpath`, which does not error
> out if the path does not exist. In general, we'd like the semantics to be as
> similar as possible across the two.
