hello

on XP i find that idlc fails if i pass to the -I option a path
containing spaces:

 >idlc -IC:\Program Files\OpenOffice.org_2.0_SDK\idl my_proj.idl
 Illegal argument: 'Files\OpenOffice.org_2.0_SDK\idl' is not a valid
input file,
 only '*.idl' files will be accepted

 >idlc -I"C:\Program Files\OpenOffice.org_2.0_SDK\idl" my_proj.idl
 C:/Program Files/OpenOffice.org_2.0_SDK/windows/bin/idlc.exe:
compile 'my_proj.idl' ...
 cpp: Can't open input file Files\OpenOffice.org_2.0_SDK\idl
 C:/Program Files/OpenOffice.org_2.0_SDK/windows/bin/idlc.exe:
preprocessing file
   my_proj.idl failed

i've tried many other variations of single and double quotes, back and
forward slashes, escapes, etc, all without success.

the only fix i have found is to reinstall the OOo SDK to a path that
doesn't contain spaces.  is that the only solution?

thanks
eric
