Hi,
                I'm using Commons VFS inside an Apache Pivot remote file 
browser and I'm getting a strange result when switching between different HDFS 
hosts.  I have two FileObjects, with different host:port (but the same 
directory name), and they compare equal (i.e., the FileObject.equals(...) 
method returns true, when they are clearly not the same.  Any thoughts?
                Here is the code and my results:
System.out.format("VFSBrowserSheet.setRootDirectory: does '%1$s' exist()? 
%2$s%n", rootDirectory, rootDirectory.exists());
        if (rootDirectory.exists()) {
            FileObject previousRootDirectory = this.rootDirectory;

System.out.format("VFSBrowserSheet.setRootDirectory: previousRootDirectory = 
%1$s%n", previousRootDirectory);
System.out.format("VFSBrowserSheet.setRootDirectory: 
rootDirectory[%1$s].equals(previousRootDirectory[%2$s])? %3$s%n", 
rootDirectory, previousRootDirectory, 
rootDirectory.equals(previousRootDirectory));
            if (!rootDirectory.equals(previousRootDirectory)) {
                this.rootDirectory = rootDirectory;
                selectedFiles.clear();
System.out.format("VFSBrowserSheet.setRootDirectory, calling 
'rootDirectoryChanged'%n");
                fileBrowserSheetListeners.rootDirectoryChanged(this, 
previousRootDirectory);
            }

VFSBrowserSheet.setRootDirectory: does 'hdfs://chhadoop-master:9000/' exist()? 
true
VFSBrowserSheet.setRootDirectory: previousRootDirectory = 
hdfs://chcluster2-master:8020/
VFSBrowserSheet.setRootDirectory: 
rootDirectory[hdfs://chhadoop-master:9000/].equals(previousRootDirectory[hdfs://chcluster2-master:8020/])?
 True

Thanks,
