Heinrich Nirschl commented on MNG-2190:
---------------------------------------
The approach taken in maven 2.0.7 still does not work as this example shows
(with bash on Linux):
$ mvn help:effective-settings -Dfoo="ba\" bu"
[INFO] Scanning for projects...
[INFO] Searching repository for plugin with prefix: 'help'.
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[ERROR] BUILD FAILURE
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[INFO] Invalid task 'bu': 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

I think it's the responsibility of the shell wrapper to correctly pass the
parameters to the java process. Workarounds in Java are just a mess.

> Is this intended behavior? Seems as if Maven is unnecessarily splitting the

> 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.
