Doc Text:	The `jboss-cli` tool would not launch successfully on Microsoft Windows if JBoss EAP 6 was installed in a directory that had spaces or other special characters such as parentheses in its path. For example, the following error message was displayed if JBoss EAP 6 was installed in the directory `C:\JBoss EAP\jboss-eap-6.2`: ---- Error: Could not find or load main class EAP\jboss-eap-6.2\bin\jboss-cli-logging.properties ---- This issue has been fixed in this release by changing how the `jboss-cli` tool declares and uses file paths on Microsoft Windows. As a result, it can be used without workarounds in JBoss EAP 6 installations in directories that have spaces or other special characters in their path on Microsoft Windows systems.

Also special characters like parentheses are problem here, we should add this to RN as well.
