Kenney Westerhof updated MNG-2190: ---------------------------------- Fix Version/s: (was: 2.0.5) 2.0.6 > -Dkey=value parameters cannot include spaces in the value > --------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MNG-2190 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-2190 > Project: Maven 2 > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Command Line > Affects Versions: 2.0.2 > Environment: Darwin > Reporter: Gordon Henriksen > Assigned To: Brett Porter > Fix For: 2.0.6 > > Attachments: MNG-2190.patch > > > Even if I properly escape spaces in a path at the shell level, Maven seems to > re-split the command parameters. For instance, on Unix, the following should > all run the compile goal with a property foo="bar baz": > $ mvn compile "-Dfoo=bar baz" > $ mvn compile -Dfoo="bar baz" > $ mvn compile -Dfoo=bar\ baz > But in fact, Maven fails, complaining that "baz" is an invalid task: > [INFO] Scanning for projects... > [INFO] > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- > [ERROR] BUILD FAILURE > [INFO] > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- > [INFO] Invalid task 'baz': you must specify a valid lifecycle phase, or a > goal in the format plugin:goal or > pluginGroupId:pluginArtifactId:pluginVersion:goal > [INFO] > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- > [INFO] For more information, run Maven with the -e switch > [INFO] > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- > [INFO] Total time: < 1 second > [INFO] Finished at: Wed Mar 29 15:21:01 EST 2006 > [INFO] Final Memory: 1M/2M > [INFO] > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Is this intended behavior? Seems as if Maven is unnecessarily splitting the > string, when the OS already does as much. > I was merely trying to run: > mvn deploy:deploy-file "-Dfile=/Users/me/Desktop/Bellicose > SDK/lib/Bellicose.jar" ... > In my case, it's practical to work around by renaming the Bellicose SDK > folder, but it seems as if Windows users stuck with "C:\Documents and > Settings\..." might have a harder time of it. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
