Sterling Hughes updated MYNEWT-365:
-----------------------------------
Assignee: Christopher Collins (was: Sterling Hughes)
> newt can't handle files with spaces
> -----------------------------------
>
> Key: MYNEWT-365
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MYNEWT-365
> Project: Mynewt
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Newt
> Affects Versions: v0_9_0
> Environment: Any
> Reporter: Tim
> Assignee: Christopher Collins
> Priority: Minor
>
> I was just looking at the code that decides where gcc is run from (so I can
> see if I can make it always run from /workspace, so full paths are used),
> when I noticed you don't handle program arguments properly.
> See [this
> code|https://github.com/apache/incubator-mynewt-newt/blob/8abc4f2c2bb1ab784a854cdf5662e79d88a41407/newt/toolchain/compiler.go#L262]
> {code}
> cmd += " -c " + "-o " + objPath + " " + file +
> " " + c.cflagsString() + " " + c.includesString()
> {code}
> Command line arguments should be stored as a {{[]string}} instead of a
> space-delimited {{string}}. Then you don't need to worry about spaces or
> escaping or anything like that. In other words something like this:
> {code}
> func (c *Compiler) CompileFileCmd(file string,
> compilerType int) ([]string, error) {
> objFile := strings.TrimSuffix(file, filepath.Ext(file)) + ".o"
> objPath := filepath.ToSlash(c.dstDir + "/" + objFile)
> cmd := make([]string)
> switch compilerType {
> case COMPILER_TYPE_C:
> cmd = cmd.append(c.ccPath)
> case COMPILER_TYPE_ASM:
> cmd = cmd.append(c.asPath)
> default:
> return nil, util.NewNewtError("Unknown compiler type")
> }
> cmd = append(cmd, "-c", "-o", objPath, file)
> // There will be some special handling for these, depending on what
> they contain (I'm not sure of the format of these exactly).
> // c.cflagsString(), c.includesString()
> return cmd, nil
> }
> {code}
> And then don't use ShellCommand() to run it. Is there any reason that you're
> using {{sh -c}} rather than just running the command directly? It's going to
> make porting to Windows a pain. Similarly for code like this:
> {code}
> func CopyFile(srcFile string, destFile string) error {
> _, err := ShellCommand(fmt.Sprintf("mkdir -p %s",
> filepath.Dir(destFile)))
> if err != nil {
> return err
> }
> if _, err := ShellCommand(fmt.Sprintf("cp -Rf %s %s", srcFile,
> destFile)); err != nil {
> return err
> }
> return nil
> }
> {code}
> That won't work on Windows and also won't work with files containing spaces.
> Better to use Go's proper functions for creating directories and copying
> files. (Unfortunately there isn't a built-in equivalent of {{cp -Rf}} but if
> you google it there is lots of example code.)
