.Net problem "Illegal characters in path."

Answer 1

Your code will call System.IO.Path.CheckInvalidPathChars, which in turn checks for the the following:

1. double quote (")

2. left angle bracket (<)

3. right angle bracket (>)

4. veritical bar (|)

and for control characters less than 32 decimal (space).

So Make sure your path doesn't contain them.

Answer 2

Nice Stacktrace, but the invalid path would be more helpful.

In my oponion, the path provided to OpenBay.Utils.XPathUtils.GetNodes(string, string) has some invalid arguments. Use System.IO.Path.CheckInvalidPathChars() to check which characters are invalid and maybe contained in the argument provided to the method above.
