Andrey Zagrebin commented on FLINK-10295:
-----------------------------------------
The pull request adds another way to provide program args as list of string.
The most secure option is to pass program args as a json list in the body of
the http request. This way is cross-platform. The args string does not need any
tokenisation because they are already tokenised in the list. The follow-up
issue FLINK-10515 is to still improve the tokenisation to simplify passing args
as string in web UI at least for unix style escaping.

> We were upgrading from Flink 1.4 to 1.6. At present we have a jar which takes
> all the details to run the job as program args against a jarid, including sql
> query and kafka details. In version 1.5 the program args are tokenised as a
> result single quote (') and double quote(") are stripped from the arguments.
> This results in malformed args.
> Attached a sample request for reference.
