As someone mentioned, you can use "cygpath -p" to convert a POSIX-style
path into a Win32-style one.

Alternatively, you can try using my java wrapper scripts that will do the
translation automatically for you (the scripts can be found at
<http://cygwin.com/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/wrappers/java/?cvsroot=cygwin-apps>;
you'll need to edit the scripts to point them to your Java installation
directory).

Or, since you're doing XML processing in Java, you might find XJ
(<http://www.research.ibm.com/xj/>) useful.  There's a prototype on IBM
alphaWorks (a free download), and it works under Cygwin.
