[Boost-users] [filesystem] basic_path question

Hi, I create the following object: boost::filesystem::path mypath( "SomeFolder/OnWindows/SubFolder" ); In Microsoft Windows, the standard slash direction is "\", so when I run the above in the debugger, I notice m_path is still using forward slashes ("/"). I would have expected the slashes to be normalized. Am I misunderstanding something? How can I construct a path object like above and have it normalize the slashes? Thanks.
