Stefan Bodewig <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|NEW |RESOLVED Resolution| |WONTFIX --- Comment #1 from Stefan Bodewig <[email protected]> 2009-05-07 02:42:20 PST --- ant doesn't, Runtime.exec does - and there isn't much Ant can do. If you run Ant in verbose mode you'll see [echo] Variable is "src" [echo] Now lets see what exec do with quotes [exec] Current OS is Windows XP [exec] Executing 'echo' with arguments: [exec] '"src"' [exec] [exec] The ' characters around the executable and arguments are [exec] not part of the command. [exec] src [echo] It removes quotes - even when entered directly [exec] Current OS is Windows XP [exec] Executing 'echo' with arguments: [exec] '"src"' [exec] [exec] The ' characters around the executable and arguments are [exec] not part of the command. [exec] src even on Windows where echo swallows the quotes. Ant uses the String[] version of Runtime.exec and passes down the quotes, it's just that they get swallowed later either inside the class libraries implementation of exec or inside the OS.
