------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Wed Sep 5 05:27:42 +0000 2007 ------- Hrmpf, thank you Microsoft! Shell recipes are executed by dmake with a command that is created like this: $(SHELL) $(SHELLFLAGS) $(expanded_recipe_command) For the given example this is: cmd.exe /C "C:\Temp\hello.exe" "arg" Now, open a new cmd and try it. :( This follows this rule: > 2. Otherwise, old behavior is to see if the first character is a quote > character and if so, strip the leading character and remove the last quote > character on the command line, preserving any text after the last quote > character. Adding extra quotes would solve this: $(SHELL) $(SHELLFLAGS) "$(expanded_recipe_command)" but this would only be correct for cmd.exe, for any other shell this might create additional problems. (Your problematic example works fine with bash) How about a new speial macro, say SHELLADDQUOTE (and also GROUPSHELLQUOTE), that adds the quotes if set to yes? --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
