.Net CF Directory.GetFiles bug

[JO]

Hi, I think I found a bug that occurs in the following:
1. Create a Windows CE Internet Appliance platform from Platform builder.
Either 4.2 or 5.0.
2. Load the emulator.
3. Start Folder Sharing and map to a folder on your hard drive.
4. Note that the folder "Storage Card" appears in Windows Explorer, mapped
to your local drive
5. Run a program that executes the following line:
Directory.GetFiles(@"\Storage Card");

Expected:
string array of files in that directory returned

Actual:
IOException thrown.

Remarks:
I'm able to browse Storage Card directory in Windows Explorer, and
Directory.Exists(@"\Storage Card") returns true.

Note that if I run this image on a CEPC, and plug in a USB mass storage
device, it works fine. (although it becomes "\Hard Disk" instead of "Storage
Card")

Has anyone seen this happen? Looks like .NetCF isn't properly handling the
emulated storage card.

Thanks!
Jay

What does the exception actually say about the error?

No response.. It just says "IOException" in the Message and ToString()
property/method.
