Slashes in syntastic_javac_config

Slashes in syntastic_javac_config should be forward even in Windows

[rhart92]

Has there been any progress on making the slashes forward even in Windows? Right now, I have a script that every time the file updates, it changes all the slashes to forward but it would be nice if this was supported.

What version of the plugin are you using?

[rhart92]

0.3.8

[Scuilion]

The best option here may be to add a manually configurable switch to set the direction of the slash. Every time I look into this issue I feel like I get turned around. Is it running on cygwin/vim, gvim, or bash for windows. Too many use cases to test for.

Any reason why string.replace('\\', '/') wouldn't do the trick? Naive question, not a windows user myself.

[Scuilion]

Yeah, the should do the trick. The problem I keep running into is in some configuration on windows (I can't remember now) the slashes need to be *nix style. I don't have a windows box handy. I'll have to see if I can find one and get a little more specific.

One new vote to support automatic slash manipulation. I'm using git bash on Windows, and I have confirmed that forward slashes or double backslashes function correctly.
