Dear all,
I'm not sure whether this is intended behaviour or a bug. The path returns
from normalizePath is different when the directory doesn't exist. I have
included a reproducible example.
path <- tempfile()
missing.dir <- normalizePath(path, winslash = "/", mustWork = FALSE)
dir.create(path)
existing.dir <- normalizePath(path, winslash = "/", mustWork = FALSE)
> all.equal(missing.dir, existing.dir)
[1] "1 string mismatch"
> missing.dir
[1] "C:/Users/THIERR~2/AppData/Local/Temp/RtmpagA8Gx/filed5c2cd03543"
> existing.dir
[1]
"C:/Users/thierry_onkelinx/AppData/Local/Temp/RtmpagA8Gx/filed5c2cd03543"

To call in the statistician after the experiment is done may be no more
than asking him to perform a post-mortem examination: he may be able to say
what the experiment died of. ~ Sir Ronald Aylmer Fisher
The plural of anecdote is not data. ~ Roger Brinner
The combination of some data and an aching desire for an answer does not
ensure that a reasonable answer can be extracted from a given body of data.
