             Summary: Need to update docs re: fullPath change
                 Key: CB-6022
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-6022
             Project: Apache Cordova
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Plugin File, Plugin File Transfer
            Reporter: Ian Clelland
            Assignee: Ian Clelland


For backwards compatibility, FileTransfer can take device-absolute file paths as well as file URLs.

Previously, there were two methods that would get you a file path from a FileEntry: Entry.toURL() and Entry.fullPath would both expose the absolute path. With the new version (1.0.0) of File, fullPath now properly represents the path relative to the filesystem root, rather than the device root.

We should update the docs to say that if you were previously using {{entry.fullPath}} to obtain filesystem paths, you should switch to {{entry.toURL()}} and use URLs instead.
