[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #56267] addpath() on Windows fails to recognize same subdirs with different fileseps and case

[Philip Nienhuis]

Follow-up Comment #2, bug #56267 (project octave):

Thanks for picking up, Rik.


>> canonicalize_file_name ('C:/Users/Philip')
ans = C:\Users\Philip
>> canonicalize_file_name ('C:\Users\Philip')
ans = C:\Users\Philip
>>


What matters here is simply consistent fileseps and ignoring casing.
I checked with javaaddpath: that is doing the exact right thing:

GNU Octave, version 6.0.0
:
>> javaclasspath
   STATIC JAVA PATH

      - empty -

   DYNAMIC JAVA PATH

      C:\Users\philip\java\poi-4.0.0.jar
      C:\Users\philip\java\poi-ooxml-4.0.0.jar
:
>> javaaddpath('C:/Users/Philip/java/poi-4.0.0.jar')
>> javaclasspath
   STATIC JAVA PATH

      - empty -

   DYNAMIC JAVA PATH

      C:\Users\philip\java\poi-4.0.0.jar
      C:\Users\philip\java\poi-ooxml-4.0.0.jar
:


so there we have example code that can be mimicked.
