I looked over the src/jacl/tcl/lang/FileUtil.java and the method
getNewFileObj. In the 1.0 release of Jacl it was defined like this.
static File
getNewFileObj(
Interp interp, // Current interpreter.
String fileName) // File to create object for.
throws
TclException
{
File f;
fileName = translateFileName(interp, fileName);
if (getPathType(fileName) == PATH_ABSOLUTE) {
f = new File(fileName);
} else {
f = new File (interp.getWorkingDir(), fileName);
}
return f;
}
Your note says that the changes you made were brought over from 1.0
but I do not see where. Was that a 1.0 alpha release or something?
If your change fixes a bug under NT, I would like to add it before
the 1.2.4 release but I need some proof that there is actually a bug.
Could you privide some test cases that demonstrate this bug in
the 1.2.3 release? Some test cases and the output they produce both
before and after the patch would make my life a lot easier.
