http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=22894 Single backslash not accepted in File param value ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-09-02 19:52 ------- I am disappointed that you do not feel fixing this bug is worthwhile. I will not re-open this bug, but I'll add these additional comments: Yes, I was aware of the ability to use forward slashes or doubling up the backslashes to make this work. In my case, I am supporting a GUI which accepts user input for a file path which eventually becomes a log4j log file. So the user of my application becomes confused when they enter a valid Windows filepath and then do not see the results they expected. In order to work around this deficiency in log4j, I now have to search file path strings, looking for single backslashes, and then convert them to double backslashes...so that log4j can convert them back into single backslashes! All this, when it's not really necessary or useful to be utilizing the convertSpecialChars() method on file path strings. Sincerely, Tom Caulkins Sr. Systems Developer SAS Institute Inc.
