[jcifs] SmbFile.getParent() NullPointerException

[David Kaelbling]

Hi Mike,

Here's the getParent() fragment inline.  It also shows the getPath()
behavior that confused me.

import jcifs.smb.SmbFile;

public class ParentTest {
    public static void main( String[] argv ) throws Exception {
        SmbFile file = new SmbFile( "smb://" );
        System.out.print("getParent(" + file.getPath() + ") => ");
	System.out.println(file.getParent());
    }
}
