new File(path).list() problem

[DeSn]

Anyone an idea why this doens't work if path is a

path="../MilesRoot/"
path="\\\\max1\\public\\"

new File(path).list()

The list is null. It works if path is f.e. "c:\\test\\

Which 'path' String are you talking about (max1 or MilesRoot) ?

Can you do a "dir \\path" ?

They both don't work

new FileOutPutStream(path) doesn't work eather.

path.isDirectory() gives errors but I don't know why because it is a directory

 

[sedj]

You want to do :

File f = new File("\\max1\\public");
File files[] = f.listFiles();
System.err.println(files.length);
