Source tree parsing issues on Windows

    • Closed Issue created by Powers, Peter M. @pmpowers

    When parsing the conus model on Windows the following exception is thrown:

    java.nio.file.InvalidPathException: Illegal char <:> at index 34: Wasatch (Salt Lake City, cluster) : R1-1300-yr
        at java.base/sun.nio.fs.WindowsPathParser.normalize(WindowsPathParser.java:182)
        at java.base/sun.nio.fs.WindowsPathParser.parse(WindowsPathParser.java:153)

    Early on, we decided to represent the branch values of a SourceTree using java.nio.Path. While most branches are reflected in the file hierarchy of the source tree, we also occasionally use 'fake' paths where a colon separator is inserted. The idea was that this would be consistent with the string representation of a source tree branch assembled from multiple paths. I think the only place this happens right now is on the rate-tree branches of cluster models. One option is to just change the string representation to not have a colon, the other is to use String instead of Path as a branch value with the latter requiring more work/changes.
