RE: [platform-core-dev] Latest on path character issues

This looks better. Notes:
 
1. You have isValidSegment() and isValidPath() deprecated in one section (Other migration issues) and not deprecated in an earlier section (API Details). I think you are intending for nothing to be deprecated in this latest version.
2. It's not clear what change, if any, is proposed for the two-argument Path() contstructor. On Windows if the device is null does it look for device in the second argument? How about on Unix? If device is not null does it still look for and strip off (but otherwise ignore) a device in the second argument on Windows? Unix?
3. It's still not clear how the output of toString(), toOSString(), and toPortableString() will vary for various paths on various hosts.

Subject: [platform-core-dev] Latest on path character issues


Based on feedback from the previous proposal, and from the experience of implementing and testing various solutions, I have made some changes to the proposal to allow colon and backslash characters in paths.  ...
