[jira] [Updated] (MESOS-5937) `flags::parse` assumes the filesystem is rooted at '/'

["Alex Clemmer (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-5937?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Alex Clemmer updated MESOS-5937:
--------------------------------
    Description: 
This bug causes the following tests to fail:

* FlagsFileTest.JSONFile

In parse.hpp, in the `flags::parse` contains a line like:

```
if (strings::startsWith(value, "/")) {
```

Normally to load a JSON flags file, we will specify a file like: `file://file_here`. This line exists for backwards compatibility. But since it's FS-specific, this will fail on Windows.

As of this writing, this causes `FlagsFileTest.JSONFile` to fail.
