GetItemByPath broken in 2009_3_1314

[Raj]

The GetItemByPath used to work with delimiters i.e. GetItemByPath(@"\\RootNode\\") 

worked fine until this release. It seems now I have to remove the delimiters which breaks code everywhere.

Hi Raj,

I am sorry to hear that this has been a breaking change for you.

Ending the path with a separator was not expected for us and we have not tested this scenario or tried to preserve it. We are very careful with changes and try not to introduce breaking changes at all.

This is the second time I hear about problems with this particular use of GetItemByPath after the SP release. If there is further feedback that identifies the change as a problem we will consider reverting it for the Q1 release. 
 
Thank you for letting us know that you have been affected by this change.

Kind regards,
Miroslav

No problem - I fixed this in my code. Just wanted to make you aware.

Thanks,

Raj
