Java Tag in ColdFusion not accepting /

[EdGioja]

I wrote a very basic JAVA tag. I've now stripped it down to the following:


import com.allaire.cfx.*;
import javax.swing.*;

public class GetFileName implements CustomTag
{
public void processRequest( Request request, Response response )
{
// String strName = request.getAttribute( "FULLNAME" ) ;
String strName = "Hello there";
response.write(strName);
}
}


When I call this tag with as follows:


<cfx_GetFileName FULLNAME="#trim(GetDocument.dm_doi)#">


and GetDocument.dm_doi = "/app07/ILNB_dochome_app07/docs0887/ILNB.1.5.bk.62199.13008789.3"


I get the following error:

String index out of range: -35

35 is the character position of the last /, and will change if I change the string. If I change all of the / to \, the tag works fine. Unfortunately, I'm working with a UNIX system and require the slashes to be /.

Help please? I posted this in ColdFusion. It was suggested I try posting it here.
Of course I'm working on a time-sensitive project (aren't we all?)

out of interest, what happens if you try :

"\/app07\/ILNB_dochome_app07\/docs0887\/ILNB.1.5.bk.62199.13008789.3"

or

"//app07//ILNB_dochome_app07//docs0887//ILNB.1.5.bk.62199.13008789.3"

If its length is 35, the last char will be in the 34 position, but anyway you're getting a -35.

Do you have a stacktrace of the exception? Are you doing some processing or the exception is thrown by the system itself?
