Hello Everyone,
I've noticed a strange problem, and I don't know whether I don't use the correct service or this is a bug, but I guess it's the first one.
I try to open a a file this way:
ResourcesPlugin.getWorkspace().getRoot().getFile(path);
and if it is in the absolute root directory (e.g. /sth.txt) I got:
message = "Path must include project and resource name: " + path.toString();
from Workspace.newResource, because
path.segmentCount() < ICoreConstants.MINIMUM_FILE_SEGMENT_LENGTH
returns false (segment count is 1, since the path is /sth.txt).
This method works if I don't take a file from the root but from some other directory under /.
Could someone tell what is the solution for this issue?
thanks
david

First, I suggest to read a little bit more about what a workspace (root)
is and how it is structured.
