I may be ignorant of some key principle in the filesystem world, but IMHO conceptually, `location / somethingElse` should always return either location or something inside of it, unless the request explicitly requests otherwise (e.g. location / '..'). To do otherwise could be disastrous.
Behavior #1 rootDataFolder := FileLocator home / 'a' / 'b' / . subfolderName := self accidentallyReturnAnEmptyString. assumedToBeInRootData := rootDataFolder / subfolderName. assumedToBeInRootData deleteAll. "I hope I have a recent machine backup, because..." assumedToBeInRootData resolve = FileLocator root resolve. "WTH?!" Behavior 2 (similar) Path * 'a' / 'b' / '/' = Path root. "WTH?!" ----- Cheers, Sean -- Sent from: http://forum.world.st/Pharo-Smalltalk-Developers-f1294837.html
