Description say_ten 2008-05-02 12:53:34 UTC

I came across this when trialling the new PHP Early Access application.  My setup is:

IDE location: Windows Box
PHP Website location: FreeBSD Box

The FreeBSD box is running samba and when using Zend I have always accessed it over the samba share, so the project
locations are:

\\10.10.0.1\wwwroot\<site>\htdocs

NetBeans simple doesn't allow this path, even though it's a valid path on Windows.  I could map a drive to work around
this but sometimes my machine leaves this environment and the mapping would invalidate.  I'd rather see all valid paths,
regardless of OS, supported.

reassigning to openide/filesystems for evaluation

Comment 2 Jiri Skrivanek 2008-09-04 10:17:47 UTC

NB6.5 already supports UNC paths.
