[jira] [Created] (IO-585) FilenameUtils#normalizeNoEndSeparator does not sanitize multiple backslashes directly after the colon in windows file paths

Adam McClenaghan created IO-585:
-----------------------------------

             Summary: FilenameUtils#normalizeNoEndSeparator does not sanitize multiple backslashes directly after the colon in windows file paths
                 Key: IO-585
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IO-585
             Project: Commons IO
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 2.6
            Reporter: Adam McClenaghan


FilenameUtils#normalizeNoEndSeparator states in the javadoc that :
"A double slash will be merged to a single slash (but UNC names are handled)."

It has been observed that if a double backslash occurs after the colon in a windows filepath, then the returned path still contains this double backslash. For example:
' C:\\Program Files\\ExampleDirectory ' --> ' C:\\Program Files\ExampleDirectory `

While the expectation is that we should be returning ' C:\Program Files\ExampleDirectory '
