Mostafa Elhemali commented on HADOOP-9600:
------------------------------------------
Thanks [~chuanliu]. I needed this change because I couldn't find a way to get
quoting to work in the "for" syntax when one of the arguments to the command is
quoted as well. Here's a simple repro of that problem:
{code}
md "c:\a b"
echo @echo Hi > "c:\a b\a.cmd"
echo for /f "delims=" %%A in ('"c:\a b\a.cmd" "X"') do set ABC=%%A > "c:\a
b\x.cmd"
"c:\a b\x.cmd"
{code}
This will fail with {quote}'c:\a' is not recognized as an internal or external
command, operable program or batch file. {quote}. Since the purpose of this for
statement is to assign the output to the JAVA_PLATFORM variable, I did this in
the alternate way instead.
