      • ensureCanonicalPath

        protected java.lang.String ensureCanonicalPath​(java.lang.String path)
        Takes a path and resolves it to be a canonical & absolute path. The caveats are that this method will take an Ant style file selector path (../someDir/**\/*.jar) and convert it to an absolute/canonical path (at least to the left of the first * or ?).
        Parameters:
        path - the path to canonicalize
        Returns:
        the canonical path
