properties passed into JRuby cannot contain spaces
--------------------------------------------------

                 Key: JRUBY-2295
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/JRUBY-2295
             Project: JRuby
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: JRuby 1.1RC2
         Environment: Windows XP, JRuby-1.1RC2, cygwin
            Reporter: John Woodward
            Assignee: Thomas E Enebo


I know that there is some support for passing in java properties via jruby 
-J-D<propname>=<propvalue>. I'm having an issue, however, with the property 
value not being allowed to have spaces.

For example, jruby -J-Dfoo="a b" results in a class not found exception, as 
it's looking for class "b".

Am I just missing something, or is there an issue with properties containing 
spaces being passed in with this mechanism?

My true goal in this particular exercise is to have a "package" step occur with 
maven, having maven invoke warbler to build the war, passing in the list of 
dependent jar files (configured via the maven pom.xml). My thought is to have 
maven launch the warbler process via jruby, setting a property to the 
${dependencies} (which contains the entire set of dependencies). My warbler 
config file can then look up (hopefully) the set of jars and force the 
inclusion of the relevant jars in the final war. Of course, if someone has an 
alternative approach, I'd love to hear it!
