Subject: Property Setting
In trying to set a property, I've run into a wall. From within a buildfile
I can do the following:
<property name="thing" value="sdasd asdasd asdasd" />
Done outside the buildfile, from the command line, I try:
ant -Dthing="sdasd asdasd asdasd" target
and it tries to find the target 'asdasd'.
Is there a way to set a property that has a space in it's contents from
outside ant?
