Project file fix when running on windows caused by double back slash.…

[gmartina]

… When double back slash is saved into a file the first one is working as a scape char resulting in one back slash in the relative path unabling to load the project again. This is solved by replacing double back slash with forward slash. Example of yaml project file saved in Windows: Before:

files: 
  - name: "src\example1.vhd"

After:

files: 
  - name: "src/example1.vhd"

thanks for that!

Using the 6.0.1 build as of May 28th still saves single backward slahes in project files. Either the fix is not active in this build or it is not sufficient to replace double backslashes with a forward slash?!

Is there anything I can do to support solving this issue?

@gmartina should we use new_files[i].name = new_files[i].name.replace(/\\/g, '/'); instead of new_files[i].name = new_files[i].name.replace("\\", '/'); ?

@grunora can you put your project example that it's failing?

I have attached four project files:

1. Project_backslash.yml: file saved with v6.0.1 -> doesn't work
2. Project_file_fowardslash.yml: manually replaced backward slashes by forward slashes just for the project file -> doesn't work
3. Project_all_forwardslash.yml: manually replaced all backward slashes with forward slashes -> works
4. Project_saved_6_0_1.yml: Successfully loaded project Project_all_forwardslash.yml just saved again with v6.0.1 -> doesn't work Projectfiles.zip

Yes, thanks. I already did a new PR and tested it with the files @grunora provided.
