error in JDTLS log: Illegal character in path

[CsCherrYY]

The similar error message also can be found in protobuf/android gradle init scripts folder. The project can be imported successfully and there are only the error messages.

It seems this error only appears in VS Code insiders since there is an - in the path string

!MESSAGE Illegal character in path at index 43: file:/C:/Users/chenshi/AppData/Roaming/Code - Insiders/User/globalStorage/redhat.java/1.10.0/config_win/org.eclipse.osgi/53/0/.cp/gradle/init/init.gradle

It's the whitespace that isn't supported by java.net.URI. I'm guessing we convert the path to a URI somewhere, so we should probably avoid that.

jshell> new URI("file:/C:/Users/chenshi/AppData/Roaming/Code - Insiders/User/globalStorage/redhat.java/1.10.0/config_win/org.eclipse.osgi/53/0/.cp/gradle/init/init.gradle")

My guess is we likely just need to change

If you're only using java.net.URI because you need relativize(), have a look at java.nio.file.Path, which also has a relativize() method.
