I have not seen this problem, so I presume that native windows handles / or
\ equally well.

Subject: Re: [Cs-dev] New file release for Csound 5 and CsoundVST on Windows


I have tried to run csound.exe with WINE and noticed that it cannot
find files, apparently because DIRSEP is not correctly defined for
Win32 in H/sysdep.h (it should be '\\', but the default '/' is used).
Does this problem also occur on native Windows ?

Actually, the problem is not the directory separator character
(/ seems to work when using WINE as well), but rather that the file
search code checks if a directory is found instead of a file
(a possible error case) by trying to open the file with DIRSEP
appended to the name.
So, for example, if "test.wav" is searched and "./test.wav" is
found, "./test.wav/" is also tested and is expected to fail,
but it will not with WINE, even if test.wav is really a file.
The extra checking may be removed, though, if necessary.

I changed DIRSEP to '\\' and #ifdef'd out the directory test for WIN32.
