http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=32575 Summary: [IO] FileUtils.toFile( URL ) doesn't deal with URL encoding Product: Commons Version: 1.0 Final Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: minor Priority: P2 Component: IO AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] If the URL passed to the FileUtils.toFile( URL ) method has been encoded, using the numeric escapes ( e.g., space => %20 ) then the returned File object cannot be used to access the file on disk, as the path is wrong. One way this can occur is when the URL is returned from ClassLoader.getResource(), and the path to the resource contains spaces. Suppose the following code is run from a directory containing a space (say, /tmp/with space/ or d:\temp\with space\): public static void main( String[] args ) throws Exception { System.out.println( System.getProperty( "java.version" ) ); URL u = file.class.getResource( "t" ); System.out.println( u.getFile() ); File f = FileUtils.toFile( u ); System.out.println( f ); System.out.println( f.canRead() ); } Linux: 1.4.1 /tmp/with%20space/t /tmp/with%20space/t false Windows: 1.4.1_06 /D:/temp/with%20space/t D:\temp\with%20space\t false Tested on 1.4.1, 1.4.2 and 1.5.0. -- Configure bugmail: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
