Description mslama 2008-01-14 18:55:28 UTC 
It is not possible to create file in folder even if canWrite() returns true on folder. It is Windows specific semantics.
Comment 1 mslama 2008-01-15 14:09:21 UTC 
Code first tries to create target folder using mkdirs(). If folder exists and canWrite() returns true we try to create
temp file in target folder. If it fails we fallback to user home dir.
