I've tested your theory and I seem to get 6 and not 7.
try str = str.replace('\\','/')
instead of ("\\","/")
check out java.lang.String.replace(char c, String s)

Subject: String.length --- MayBe offtopic.
Hi all, maybe this can be considered as a offtopic, but As all we are
Java programmers, I think it could be interesting.
Do any of you know why the method String.length(), counts caracter
scape such "\\" as of there were two characaters? I mean:
String str = "d:\\myf"
str.length() ---> returns 7
and if you try to replace "\\" with "/" using the replace method:
str = str.replace("\\","/");
it results in str ----> "d://myf"
Any idea?
Thanks.
bye, Dani
