[jira] Commented: (MSHARED-78) FilteringUtils escapeWindowsPath() doesn't work on Windows

    [ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MSHARED-78?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=170311#action_170311 ] 

Anton Makeev commented on MSHARED-78:
-------------------------------------

I reckon not only the windows paths should be escaped, but all the properties filtered.

For example, if I have a property defined as <myValue>xxx\yyy:zzz<myValue> it will be read from the *.properties file incorrectly as well.

Thanks,
Anton Makeev

> The method escapeWindowsPath() is replacing  colon by backslash + colon.
> I.e.
> D:\temp
> is escaped as
> D\:\\temp
> But windows doesn't recognize that.  If you try to open D\:\\temp on explorer, will not work.
> Even java.io.File is not able to handle that too.  The attached test proves it.
> I'm not sure why this backslash was add to colon, but commenting line 44 of org.apache.maven.shared.filtering.FilteringUtils make the test work.
