I've been experimenting with a new Fantom Env that gathers up all the correct versions of dependant pods from a local fanr repository. It's nice as it allows different projects to use different versions of the same pod.

But to make it work I've tweaked the following...

I would have expected that when Env.findPodFile() is called, the returned file is honoured as being correct. But this is not always the case.

Currently, when Pod calls Env.findPodFile() it then checks that the name of the returned file is what it expected and throws an Err if not. For example, my new Env returns a file called afPlastic-1.0.18.pod but Pod throws an Err complaining that it expected the file to be called afPlastic.pod.

The Err msg is about case sensitivity on Windows machines, which is fair enough, but I see no reason why the Pod class should care about this. So I've pushed the name check down into the Env class where file is first found.

This retains the same default behaviour but also allows other Env implementations to return arbitrary named pod files.

EDIT: Updated patch so Env uses java.io.File.getCanonicalFile().getName() for the actual name check.

Agree, this is good change. The original checks were pre-Env plugin design. I pushed a change, although didn't see your canonical name change - but I don't think that matters since that is more a matter normalizing the path versus the filename itself
