http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=8359 Exec task seems to disregard quotes and apostrophes in arg attribute values. ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2002-04-23 02:34 ------- All of the following work for me: <target name="echoit"> <exec executable="echo"> <arg value='"This text is \"quoted\""'/> </exec> </target> <target name="runfind"> <exec executable="find" vmlauncher="no"> <arg line='src -type f -exec echo "{}" ";"'/> </exec> </target> <target name="doawk"> <exec executable="sh"> <arg line='-c "awk '{ print $$1 ; }' build.properties"'/> </exec> </target> But there's a different problem with your approach -- the asterisks. I doubt they'll ever do what you want them to (note that I didn't include a -name "*.whatever" in my find), so you're probably going to have to come up with a different way of doing this anyway. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
