Kevin Brown created EXEC-83:
-------------------------------
Summary: Arguments with spaces lead to quotes in arguments in bash
Key: EXEC-83
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/EXEC-83
Project: Commons Exec
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 1.2
Environment: Java 7 & OSX
Reporter: Kevin Brown
Priority: Minor
If I run my script directly from a bash prompt I see a different behavior than
if I launch with commons-exec. This may be the nature of the beast (java
Runtime-exec interacting with bash), but leads me to have to rewrite scripts to
remove extraneous quotes.
Here is my script:
$ cat ./foo.sh
#!/bin/bash
echo "$@"
case I: commons-exec with no spaces ==> arguments do NOT have quotes when in
bash script
cmdLine=[/opt/bmam/bin/avidcommand/write_xmp_remote.sh, 70059021,
RAW-one_two_three, http://foo.com]
output (of $@):
70059021 RAW-one_two_three http://foo.com
case II: commons-exec with spaces ==> arguments have quotes when in bash script
cmdLine=[/opt/bin/foo.sh, 70058269, "AIR-one two three", http://foo.com]
output (of $@):
70058269 "AIR-one two three" http://foo.com
case III: execute directly from bash ==> arguments do NOT have quotes when in
bash script
$./foo.sh 70058891 "one two three" http://foo.com
output (of $@):
70058891 one two three http://foo.com
