Hi,

sorry I did not mentioned that earlyer. The File.toURL() and
URL.getFile() return the same results as in the sun jvm. I tested that
already. If compliancy is wanted then the changes could be done in the
FileInputStream.java class. (In the sun jvm there is a
FileSystem.normalize method called) maybe something similar is needed.

Thanks, Len
