http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=16871 Javadoc task should quote files in generated file list Summary: Javadoc task should quote files in generated file list Product: Ant Version: 1.5.1 Platform: PC OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: Other Component: Core tasks AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] The javadoc task fails if - useexternalfile="true" is used, and - the Java source files contain white space somewhere in there path names. Since Javadoc sees the file submitted on the command line via "javadoc @argsfile" as a file containing a list of arguments and not as a list of files with each file name on a separate line, it is correct in interpreting white space in a file name as an argument separator. I helped myself by surrounding the file names by single quotes and by doubling all backslashes. (The latter I had to do since I am forced to work under Windoze NT. :-() Ant's javadoc task should quote the file names correctly when generating the external file list.
