Case sensitivity and multi-platform development
For current releases of the server:
- The Helix Core Server on UNIX supports case-sensitive names.
- The Helix Core Server on Windows ignores case differences.
- Case is always ignored in keyword-based job searches, regardless of platform.
The following table summarizes these rules.
Case-sensitive | UNIX server | Windows server |
---|---|---|
Pathnames and filenames |
Yes |
No |
Database entities (workspaces, labels, and so on.) |
Yes |
No |
Job search keywords |
No |
No |
