Suppose I have two files on my file system with the same name. One is
in a directory I do not have permission to:
c:/does_not_have_permission/sqlMap.config
and the other one is in the root of my application:
/sqlMap.config
The documentation for File.Exists says:
"
true if the caller has the required permissions and path contains the
name of an existing file; otherwise, false. This method also returns
false if path is null or a zero-length string. If the caller does not
have sufficient permissions to read the specified file, no exception is
thrown and the method returns false regardless of the existence of
path.
"
If I called the method like this:
GetConfigAsXmlDocument("c:/does_not_have_permission/sqlMap.config")
File.Exists would return false and "/sqlMap.config" would be loaded.
That's not the file I wanted.
