FileURLConnection's use of URLDecoder causes it to break with file URLs with '+' symbols in the path ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBCOMMON-103 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBCOMMON-103 Project: JBoss Common Issue Type: Bug Security Level: Public (Everyone can see) Affects Versions: 2.2.17.GA Reporter: Matt Drees Assignee: Dimitris Andreadis FileURLConnection uses URLDecoder.decode() as part of its process for turning URL paths into filesystem paths. However, this causes paths with '+' symbols to be incorrectly decoded; the '+' symbols are turned into spaces. (This is most relevant on mac os x, where the temp directory often contains plus symbols). This bug is basically identical to JBVFS-129, and I believe the fix is the same (use File's constructor taking a URI argument). I'll attach a patch with a testcase and a patch with a potential fix. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
