Hello,
one of key Java principles is "write once - run everywhere".
It seems to me that this code breaks this rule
------------------------------------
import java.nio.file.Files;
import java.nio.file.Path;
import java.util.List;
public class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
String path = Main.class
.getClassLoader()
.getResource("tsypanov/example/war-and-peace.json")
.getPath();
List<String> lines = Files.readAllLines(Path.of(path));
assert lines.size() == 1;
}
}
------------------------------------
This code work under *nix (tested on MacOS and Linux Mint)
and fails on Windows 10 with exception:
Exception in thread "main" java.nio.file.InvalidPathException:
Illegal char <:> at index 2:

As far as I use a relative path in my Java code
I expect this to have same behaviour on all supported platforms.
This was reproduced on JDK 12.
I've prepared a test project on GitHub to reproduce this in IDEA:
