Ever called f.absolutepath when this file is located at \\.PSF\?
It crashes, but not sure if it is RB or Parallels.
When you have Parallels installed on your MacIntel and you would
want to run your windows executable produced by RB-MacOSX then you
need to tell Parallels to create a shared folder. The root of this
shared folder is called \.PSF on windows, but its absolute path
would originate from the Mac. If you call GetFolderItem
("myTestFile") in your app, which also is located in the \.PSF
directory then you cannot call f.absolutepath.
Has this been reported and filed?
Why do you need to call absolutepath? As you probably know, its use
is not recommended for other than showing info to the user.
Can't you use the .parent/.child protocol to get where you need to go?
Absolute path on Windows is perfectly fine
