When I try to open a FileInputStream for a file that contains a line that starts with \input I get the following exception:

Exception in thread "main" java.io.FileNotFoundException: /Users/me/??? (No such file or directory)
    at java.io.FileInputStream.open(Native Method)
    at java.io.FileInputStream.<init>(FileInputStream.java:146)
    at java.io.FileInputStream.<init>(FileInputStream.java:101)

What going on and what's a workaround?

could you show the code please – Satya Sep 03 '14 at 03:17
It's simple: new FileInputStream(fileName) fails if the file contains a line that starts with "\input" (without the quotes). – Sam Sep 03 '14 at 03:29
