GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 41085
methods other than file: handle URI escape characters wrong
Last modified: 2005-05-01 15:10:40 UTC
The file method used to just use the path part of the URI as-is. I changed it to actually unescape characters in the URI properly. There's a good chance that every other method handles this wrong in at least some cases. We can write specific bugs for each one later if we decide we want to. ------- Additional Comments From snickell@stanford.edu 2001-07-23 00:35:36 ---- Taking bugs previously assigned to Pavel, assigning them to myself. Will parse them out at my leisure , but many are GnomeVFS bugs we should look at for 2.0 ------- Bug moved to this database by unknown@bugzilla.gnome.org 2001-09-09 20:33 -------
Hello, could we get news from this case ? Is this bug still relevant ? thanks
desrt@peloton desrt $ mkdir test\ directory desrt@peloton desrt $ touch test\ directory/file desrt@peloton desrt $ gnomevfs-ls file:///home/desrt/test%20directory . (Directory, x-directory/normal) size 4096 mode 0755 .. (Directory, x-directory/normal) size 4096 mode 0700 file (Regular, application/octet-stream) size 0 mode 0644 this is obviously OK now. closing.
This bug was about every method *other than* file:. Testing file: won't tell you whether it's fixed!
I've done a similar test: The sftp, smb and http methods handle the %20 case correctly. For the ftp method, a bug has already been files (#44668). Closing. Feel free to file bugs against individual methods if you experience escaping issues.
