Paul Jackson commented on MSHARED-78:
-------------------------------------
IMO, Filtering should not automatically add escape characters - it takes
control away from a user. Better to never add escape characters and leave it
to the user to add them as necessary.
> FilteringUtils escapeWindowsPath() doesn't work on Windows
> ----------------------------------------------------------

> Key: MSHARED-78
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MSHARED-78
> Project: Maven Shared Components
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: maven-filtering
> Affects Versions: maven-filtering-1.0-beta-2
> Reporter: Marvin Froeder
> Fix For: maven-filtering-1.0-beta-4
>
> Attachments: FilteringUtilsTest.java
>
>
> The method escapeWindowsPath() is replacing colon by backslash + colon.
> I.e.
> D:\temp
> is escaped as
> D\:\\temp
> But windows doesn't recognize that. If you try to open D\:\\temp on
> explorer, will not work.
> Even java.io.File is not able to handle that too. The attached test proves
> it.
> I'm not sure why this backslash was add to colon, but commenting line 44 of
> org.apache.maven.shared.filtering.FilteringUtils make the test work.
