Category: filesystem Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Assigned to: Beman Dawes (beman_dawes) Summary: path and directory_iterator doesn't handle windows root path Initial Comment: directory_iterator does not append '\' to a windows root path correctly. The following Code using namespace boost::filesystem; path p("C:",native); directory_iterator it(p); is_directory(it); throws an exception which says "boost::filesystem::is_directory "C:some_file.foo": The system cannot find the given file." If I use C:\ it works. If I use a non root directory like C:\some_directory it works too. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=107586&aid=1259176&group_id=7586 ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is Sponsored by the Better Software Conference & EXPO September 19-22, 2005 * San Francisco, CA * Development Lifecycle Practices Agile & Plan-Driven Development * Managing Projects & Teams * Testing & QA Security * Process Improvement & Measurement * http://www.sqe.com/bsce5sf _______________________________________________ Boost-bugs mailing list Boost-bugs@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/boost-bugs
