             Summary: getDirectory() fails on Windows 10 for paths ending in "/"
                 Key: CB-12945
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-12945
             Project: Apache Cordova
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: cordova-plugin-file
    Affects Versions: Master
            Reporter: Adam Haile


The getDirectory() method of FileProxy.js used by cordova-plugin-file on Windows 10 attempts to split the provided path into a containing folder and a final path segment.  When the provided path ends in a "/", getDirectory() considers the final path segment to be "" (the empty string), causing an exception.

See the split into `name` and `wpath` here: https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-file/blob/master/src/windows/FileProxy.js#L758.

For instance, if we pass in the path "foo/bar/", getDirectory() will try to get the folder "" under the folder "foo/bar".  The request for "foo/bar" succeeds, as one would expect, but the attempt to then read "' beneath it fails, since "" is not a valid directory name.

From our testing, final "/" in directory paths works without failure on both Android and iOS.

getDirectory() should remove any final "/" before splitting the path into `name` and `wpath` components.
