[Swift-devel] Need CDM Direct documentation - Re: Configuring Swift to access MosaStore

Hi Ketan, Justin, or anyone else who has tried this recently:

Could you point us to the documentation that you wrote on how to use CDM direct to obtain simple access to literal, untranslated, full path names?

As I recall there were some subtleties on how to specify the name patterns, including matching both swiftwrap-observed names and file:// names in vdl-int.k.

Or is it simper then I recall?

I have checked out the CDM "absolute" test that Emalayan mentioned below. Does that do a complete test of references to absolute names? And for only names below say /tmp/mosa?

- Mike
