Error description

  • Problem with linked resources with spaces in path using Rational
    Application Developer V7
    Steps To Reproduce:
    It first showed in new Folder wizard. I tried to add new linked
    folder to my project.
    Steps to reproduce:
    
    - expand Window -? Preferences -? General -? Workspace -? Linked
       Resources
    - check Enable linked resources
    
    - add a new path variable (for example:  WORKSPACE - C:\workspac
    e70)
    - now right click on a project and select New -? Folder
    
    - enter a folder name and click Advanced
    - click Link folder to file system
    
    - Click Variables, select the variable, and then click Extend
    
    - browse to a directory such as TestJavaProject\Java Source (wit
    h spaces in name)
    - after clicking finish, open the .project file for the project
    where the folder was added.  The path is invalid.
    - if you extend a variable to a path that does not contain space
    s, then
    the entry is added correctly, and the linked folder connects to
    the appropriate folder in the file system
    
    More information:
    the problems lays in URIUtils#toURI(IPath path) when specified p
    ath is not absolute.
    if path contains segments with white spaces URI constructor fail
    s and absolute path is created.
