'file:d:/' asUrl ==> file:///d%3A/ 'file://d:/' asUrl ==> file://d:/ The second looks nice, but: 'file://d:/' asUrl asFileReference ==> File @ The problem seems to be that: 'file://d:/' asUrl pathString ==> '' :( Cheers, Doru On Thu, Mar 28, 2013 at 2:50 PM, Camillo Bruni <camillobruni@gmail.com>wrote:

Hi,
I am trying to get to a FileUrl via the polymorphic asUrl call, but it seems I am doing something wrong.
I do: 'file:d:\' asUrl
but the problem seems that $: and $\ are mangled, because when I print, I get: file:///d%3A%5C
Furthermore: 'file:d:\' asUrl asFileReference exists ==> false
but, at the same time: 'd:\' asFileReference exists ==> true
Can anyone tell me where is the mistake?
Btw, the reason I am looking for this is that I would like to use the ZeroConf support to load a configuration from a directory Monticello repository and to do that I have to pass a url to the command line.
I guess that will work out of the box under linux. I think the URL parsing with the directory letter under windows is broken. And I bet there is no test catching that either.
Did you try the following? 'file://d:/' asUrl 'file:d:/' asUrl
