\ -> / on Unix for java.io.File-typed mojo param
------------------------------------------------
Key: MNG-5035
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-5035
Project: Maven 2 & 3
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Plugin API
Affects Versions: 3.0.3
Environment: Ubuntu 10.04, JDK 6
Reporter: Jesse Glick
I created a file {{/tmp/a\b/c}} (note backslash). I created a quickstart app
with
{noformat}
public static void main( String[] args )
{
System.out.println( System.getProperty("user.dir") );
System.out.println(Arrays.toString(new File("").listFiles()));
}
{noformat}
and then run it with
{noformat}
mvn -Dexec.workingdir=/tmp/a\\b "-Dexec.args=-classpath %classpath ....App"
-Dexec.executable=.../java process-classes
org.codehaus.mojo:exec-maven-plugin:1.2:exec -X
{noformat}
I see
{noformat}
[DEBUG] Configuring mojo 'org.codehaus.mojo:exec-maven-plugin:1.2:exec' with
basic configurator -->
[DEBUG] (f) workingDirectory = /tmp/a/b
[DEBUG] Making working directory '/tmp/a/b'.
/tmp/a/b
null
{noformat}
where I expected to see
{noformat}
[DEBUG] Configuring mojo 'org.codehaus.mojo:exec-maven-plugin:1.2:exec' with
basic configurator -->
[DEBUG] (f) workingDirectory = /tmp/a\b
/tmp/a\b
[/tmp/a\b/c]
{noformat}
I believe the guilty code is in
{{org.codehaus.plexus.component.configurator.converters.basic.FileConverter}}:
{noformat}
new File( str.replace( '\\', File.separatorChar ).replace( '/',
File.separatorChar ) )
{noformat}
should probably replace only / with \ and only on Windows. Not sure what
compatibility regressions there might be, if some POM written by a Windows
developer uses \ as the separator character for relative paths.
