Spaces in for external executable are not accepted --------------------------------------------------
Key: MCOMPILER-99 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MCOMPILER-99 Project: Maven 2.x Compiler Plugin Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: 2.1 Environment: Windows XP Reporter: Jean-Marc Borer When the path to the external executable in <executable> contains space(s), the build will fail: the command is misunderstood because it stops at the first space encountered. Example: <executable>C:\Program Files\java\jdk1.6.0_11\bin\javac.exe</executable> The plugin will try to execute "C:\Program" instead. On windows the only workaround I know of is: <executable>C:\PROGRA~1\java\jdk1.6.0_11\bin\javac.exe</executable> -- 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
