> Harmony returns false on creating new file when object file==java.io.File("/..") but RI throws IOException on Linux and Windows
> platform. According to the specification method returns false if the named file already exists and throws IOException if an I/O error occurred.
> While there are different opinions on whether such file exists or impossible to create the behavior remains incomatible:
> attached test demonstrates this problem:
> RI output:
> java.io.IOException: Access is denied
>         at java.io.Win32FileSystem.createFileExclusively(Ljava.lang.String;)Z(Native Method)
>         at java.io.File.createNewFile(File.java:850)
>         at test.main(test.java:6)
> Harmony output:
> file.createNewFile()=false
