HttpServletRequest.getPathTranslated() returns different results on repeated actions

           Summary: HttpServletRequest.getPathTranslated() returns different
                    results on repeated actions
           Product: Tomcat 4
           Version: 4.0 Final
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows NT/2K
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: Catalina

Hi there,

I have created a HTML file which uses GET method and the Query String looks 
like this /servlet/hello/empty.txt . A servlet aliased hello takes the request 
and when I try to print the HttpServletRequest.getPathInfo() and 
HttpServletRequest.getPathTranslated() it prints 
Path Info             ==>>  /empty.txt
Translated Path Info  ==>> D:\Program Files\Apache Tomcat 4.0
\webapps\ROOT\hello\empty.txt

which is correct and when I do this again for a second attempt I get a 
different Output

Path Info             ==>>  /empty.txt
Translated Path Info  ==>>   D:\Program Files\Apache Tomcat 4.0
\webapps\ROOT\empty.txt

I don't understand why it gives me correct path the very first time and 
different wrong path the next time I do the same. I have the directory 
structure set up under ROOT\hello\empty.txt. I am not sure If I am doing 
something wrong or if this a BUG.

If you need more info I can send the files under my ROOT directories.

thanks
Amar.
