http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=4395 Ant shell script does not handle spaces in home dir path correctly Summary: Ant shell script does not handle spaces in home dir path correctly Product: Ant Version: 1.4.1 Platform: PC OS/Version: Windows NT/2K Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: Other Component: Wrapper scripts AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I'm running Cygwin on NT 2000, and I have a space in my home directory name "Rick Price". Under cygwin (and probably elsewhere in UnixLand) this causes the bin/ant script to be unable to read the .antrc file because of an error in the first if statement. #! /bin/sh if [ -f $HOME/.antrc ] ; then . $HOME/.antrc fi # OS specific support. $var _must_ be set to either true or false. Like so $ ant [: Price/.antrc: unknown operand Buildfile: build.xml does not exist! Build failed The fix is to put the $HOME/.antrc into quotes to protect it from the shell. Like so #! /bin/sh if [ -f "$HOME/.antrc" ] ; then . $HOME/.antrc fi # OS specific support. $var _must_ be set to either true or false.
