------------------------------
Summary: Windows Batch scripts don't handle paths with spaces
correctly
Key: JENA-286
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JENA-286
Project: Apache Jena
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Rob Vesse
Assignee: Rob Vesse
In tracking down the error reported by a user on the mailing list with running
the scripts on Windows I discovered they don't appropriately handle spaces.
While someone clearly wrote them with this in mind as written it doesn't work.
For example consider sparql.bat which is written like so currently:
set JVM_ARGS=-Xmx1024M
set JENA_CP="%JENAROOT%\lib\*;"
set LOGGING=-Dlog4j.configuration=file:%JENAROOT%/jena-log4j.properties
java %JVM_ARGS% %LOGGING% -cp %JENA_CP% arq.sparql %*
exit /B
In order to work correctly it must actually be written like this:
set JVM_ARGS=-Xmx1024M
set JENA_CP=%JENAROOT%\lib\*;
java %JVM_ARGS% -Dlog4j.configuration="file:%JENAROOT%/jena-log4j.properties"
-cp "%JENA_CP%" arq.sparql %*
exit /B
The cause of the error is that quotes used when setting a variable do not
actually carry through when that variable is accessed
Issue will be closed when all batch scripts are appropriately updated
