BBjFileSystem::resolvePath

Description

In BBj 15.0 and higher, this method returns the fully resolved absolute path for the specified file name. The file name can be a file relative to any configured prefix configurations. When a BBx program makes a call to OPEN passing in a relative path to a file, BBj checks any configured prefixes to look for the specified file in those locations.
