brian johnston updated CB-6566:
-------------------------------

    Description: 
The getFile fileEntry object comes back OK, except the values of fullPath, 
toNativeUrl and toURL are identical.  I already reported that.  However, the 
fileEntry.isFile says "true" so I assumed something was there.  However when I 
pass that fileEntry into a FileReader object and try to use reader to read the 
file I get the following results:

reader.readAsArrayBuffer and reader.readAsDataURL both throw a 
TYPE_MISMATCH_ERR.  I saw in the docs that readAsArrayBuffer is not supported 
on WP8, but I figured I'd try it anyway.

I got an error message on reader.readAsBinaryString saying that method is 
missing.  I'm not surprised about that since the HTML spec says it is 
deprecated anyway.

I also got a fileEntry back from window.resolveLocalFileSystemURI (had to put 
'///' in front of the folder and file name to get it to work) and tried to use 
that.  It gave the same results.
