Title: Exec program can't handle dir name with spaces

Try to use quotes. Hope this helps.   &quot;${buildlog.dir}\${source.changes.log.filename}&quot;     From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Kedziora, Rebecca Sent: Thursday, November 03, 2005 4:55 PM To: nant-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [Nant-users] Exec program can't handle dir name with spaces   A bug or not with nant .85 rc 3? I am executing a program using the exec task as shown below:                 <exec program="${tools.bin.path}\changes.cmd"                 commandline="${cc.root} ${cc.branch} ${cc.last.published.view.tstamp} ${cc.current.view.tstamp} > ${buildlog.dir}\${source.changes.log.filename}" failonerror="false"/> As you can see I am piping my output to a file using >.  The problem I am having is if the directory has spaces that is being piped too it will not create the ${source.changes.log.filename}.  For example if my ${buildlog.dir} directory is  c:\builds\smc management center\logfiles it will not work.  If I use c:\builds\smc\logfiles it will work. The work around I did was to move the file after it was created.                 <move file="${project.workingdir}\${source.changes.log.filename}" todir="${buildlog.dir}" overwrite="true" failonerror="false"/> Is this a bug? -Rebecca
