Description Nick Edgar CLA 2004-04-02 12:22:13 EST 
build I20040330

- run eclipse with no -data
- you get the workspace prompt showing: <somedir>/workspace/
- on Windows, it should show: <somedir>\workspace

If you use the directory chooser to choose the same directory, it appears with
backslashes and no trailing slash.  The initial state should be the same.
Comment 1 Nick Edgar CLA 2004-06-08 16:42:52 EDT 
This now appears with both a leading and a trailing slash, in addition to using
forward slashes instead of backslashes, e.g.:
/D:/eclipse-I20040608-1200/eclipse/workspace/

It should be:
D:\eclipse-I20040608-1200\eclipse\workspace

We should address this as one of the polish items.

The fix has been reviewed by billy and submitted to HEAD.
Comment 3 Andrew Eidsness CLA 2004-06-10 11:34:54 EDT 
The original fix only affected the case when -data @noDefault was used.  Billy 
has reviewed my new fix and it has been submitted to HEAD.
