More or less. If you do a File#listFiles() you will get entries with the correct case, but only for this last segment of the path. All other segments will reflect the same case as the path of the File object you invoked the method on, which of course doesn't necessarily reflect the correct case. And this is probably a little bit different from how Java works on OSX with HFS+ or Win32 with NTFS. But it's not an easy problem. On OpenVMS you also have to deal with things like rooted logicals and directories and files with the same name... -- knut
