Catolog query returns path with '\' instead of '/'

Post by Mardock »

Hi,

if I make this query /catalog/vms/{VMNAME}/vmRestorePoints/{ID}/guestfs/C:/Users/?action=listAll to get
all files and directory in C:/Users the xml response contains Path with '/' char

Code: Select all

<FileSystemEntries>
	<Files>
		<FileEntry>
			<Path>C:/Users/desktop.ini</Path>
		</FileEntry>
	</Files>
	<Directories>
		<DirectoryEntry>
			<Path>C:/Users/Administrator</Path>
		</DirectoryEntry>
	</Directories>
</FileSystemEntries>
If I query any other path of file system then the xml response contains Path with '/' char.

Only if I make this query /catalog/vms/{VMNAME}/vmRestorePoints/{ID}/guestfs/C:/?action=listAll to get
all files and directory in C: then the xml response contains Path with '\' char instead of '/' char.

Example:

Code: Select all

<FileSystemEntries>  
	<Files>
		<FileEntry>
			 <Path>C:\bootmgr</Path>
		</FileEntry>
	</Files>
	<Directories>
		<DirectoryEntry>
			<Path>C:\Users</Path>
		</DirectoryEntry>
	</Directories>
</FileSystemEntries>
Any idea?

Thanks,
Mardock.

That's by design and has to do with the way our catalog service forms paths. But does that cause any issues in your case? If so, what are those problems?

Thanks.

Hi,
if I show at the same time more path they have different separator char so they seem inconsistent.

I will replace the "\" with "/".

Thank you,
Mardock.
