Subject: Re: Pass Quotes to arg line
I have a solution for you that works :) Took me a little googling...but
this should do what you want... Please note, the Bash shell script
below is entitled myscript.sh and "lives" next to the build.xml:
<project default = "try">
<target name="try">
<exec executable="./myscript.sh" failonerror="true">
<arg line="start “this is a test”"/>
</exec>
</target>
</project>
#!/bin/bash
echo "Command line params = [$*]"
echo " "
echo "Each param:"
for aParam in $*
do
echo " [$aParam]"
done
Here is the link where I found the numerics I used above:
http://www.dwheeler.com/essays/quotes-in-html.html
I tried the " as well...to no avail... And yes \" didn't work
either...
However when I run the above Ant script in conjunction with the Bash
shell script, I get the following output:
Buildfile: build.xml
try:
[exec] Command line params = [start "this is a test"]
[exec]
[exec] Each param:
[exec] [start]
[exec] ["this]
[exec] [is]
[exec] [a]
[exec] [test"]
Hope that helps :)
