Description Lukas Krejci 2011-11-18 12:09:36 UTC
Description of problem:
CLI is not able to accept arguments containing spaces.

rhq-cli.sh -f script.js "arg with spaces"

will be interpreted as if 3 arguments were passed to the script.

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. create script called argcnt.js with a single line "println(args.length);"
2. execute the RHQ CLI with the script and an argument "arg with spaces"
  
Actual results:
the script outputs "3"

Expected results:
"1"

    [BZ 754968] - making quoted arguments work with CLI on *nix.
    Windows startup script surprisingly seems to support this ok.

verified.

[mfoley@foleymonsterbox1 bin]$ ./rhq-cli.sh -f ../argcnt.js "arg with spaces"
1
