Mladen Turk closed DAEMON-85.
-----------------------------
Resolution: Won't Fix
This is irrelevant issue, and it simplifies the command line parser ( check for
extension), dot and exe (.exe)
Use the longer names then 3 chars.
> prunsrv.exe fails if filename is less than 4 characters long

> Key: DAEMON-85
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DAEMON-85
> Project: Commons Daemon
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 1.0.1
> Environment: Win2k
> Reporter: Michael Goddard
>
> In cmdline.c, function apxCmdlineParse the following three lines check if the
> length if arg[0] is greater than the length of .EXE.
> However on windows, exe's can be executed without their .exe prefix. This
> means, if prunsrv.exe is renamed to 3 characters or less, the check fails and
> command line arguments arn't parsed returning an error. I could not figure
> out why the check is there, it seems to serve no purpose and if commented out
> the bug goes away.
> Code at fault:
> l = lstrlenW(_st_sys_argvw[0]);
> if (l < EXE_SUFFIXLEN)
> return NULL;
> To reproduce:
> 1. Rename prunsrv.exe to say abc.exe
> 2. Execute the service executable directly as 'abc' in the current folder, do
> not type 'abc.exe'. (useful to use when debugging the app)
> 3. See it fail to parse command line arguments
> To solve:
> Remove offending lines. Perhaps check if arg[0] length is less than or equal
> to 0 instead of 4, which would be a valid case to fail in.
