Dear BaseX people,

I noticed a peculiar behaviour of file:current-dir() on a Windows system.

file:current-dir()

C:\program files\Oxygen XML Editor 25\

file:path-to-native(current-dir()

C:\Program Files\Oxygen XML Editor 25\

Note the difference: "Program Files" vs. "programfiles".

Is this intended? Would one not expect that any path returned by a file:* function *is* native?

(Remark: the difference of case can become very important when constructing relative paths.)

Kind regards,

Hans-Jürgen

On the system in question, the folder "Program Files" is mapped to "programme" (I do not know the reasons.
