The signature for build-path/convention-type is:
(build-path/convention-type type
base
sub ...) → path-for-some-system?
type : (or/c 'unix 'windows)
base : (or/c path-string? path-for-some-system? 'up 'same)
sub : (or/c (and/c (or/c path-string? path-for-some-system?)
(not/c complete-path?))
(or/c 'up 'same))
I'm running on OSX 10.11.6 (El Capitan) and I don't understand the
results I'm getting:
-> (define p "C:\\foo\\bar")
-> (build-path p)
#<path:C:\foo\bar> ; NB: This is *not* a windows path, despite
looking like one
-> (build-path/convention-type 'windows 'up 'up)
#<windows-path:..\..> ; NB: this is a Windows path
-> (build-path/convention-type 'windows p)
; build-path/convention-type: specified convention incompatible with string
; path element
; path element: "C:\\foo\\bar"
; convention: 'windows
; [,bt for context]
-> (build-path/convention-type 'windows "/foo/bar")
(build-path/convention-type 'windows "/foo/bar")
; build-path/convention-type: specified convention incompatible with string
; path element
; path element: "/foo/bar"
; convention: 'windows
; [,bt for context]
What gives?
Also, while we're at it, what do REL and RED stand for in the docs?
