Howdy,
Personally, I've encountered nothing but grief when attempting to work
with windows-style file paths.  (Or more general resource paths, e.g.
for JNDI).  I don't know if this is a shortcoming of java the language,
the File/URI/URL class implementations, the windows file system, or what
else, but I don't care.  Save yourself time and hassle and work
exclusively with unix style paths.

Yoav,


Thanks for your thoughts. I am kind of new to using File I/O on Windows with Java because formerly my only deployment was to a Linux box. I am running Cygwin on Windows, but I believe that only provides me with the convenience of Unix-style file paths in a shell. Do you know of a way that I can force Ant to use Unix-style file paths even though it is technically a Windows machine? Perhaps I should ask on ant-user.

At least in my Java code I can use Unix/Java-style file paths.


Erik
