[jira] Commented: (TAP5-1007) When Tapestry is loading templates or other files on case-insensitive OSs (Windows) it should trigger an error if the file name case is incorrect (which will result in a runtime failure on case-sensitive OSs, such as Linux)

Christian Riedel commented on TAP5-1007:
----------------------------------------

Why not make everything case insensitive? I couldn't imagine why someone should write two different components with the same name like "MyComponent.java" and "Mycomponent.java". I mean, using components in templates works if you specify <t:myCOMpoNENT /> and <t:MyComponent />, so Tapestry makes no difference anyway. 
I would rather throw an error when two components with the same (toLowerCase) name are existent and ignore the case when looking template files. (more user friendly IMHO)

> In other words, on Windows you might find file "myComponent.tml" when it should be named "MyComponent.tml" (to match the name of the class, MyComponent).  This is irritating to find in testing or production, and Tapestry should be able to add a check that the case of the file name does not match the expected case.
