Priority: P2
Bug ID: 53789
Assignee: [email protected]
Summary: bin/ant mishandles quotes
Severity: normal
Classification: Unclassified
OS: Linux
Reporter: [email protected]
Hardware: PC
Status: NEW
Version: 1.8.3
Component: Wrapper scripts
Product: Ant
To reproduce:
$ echo '<project><echo>${message}</echo></project>' > build.xml && echo
message='Please "don'"'"'t kill" me' && ant -Dmessage='Please "don'"'"'t kill"
me'
message=Please "don't kill" me
/usr/local/bin/ant: 1: eval: Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
The following line is bogus:
ant_exec_args="$ant_exec_args \"$arg\""
[1] suggests that printf %q might work to solve this class of problem, but it
is Bash-specific (so it will not work e.g. on Ubuntu's /bin/sh).
