Summary: exec task's commandline and arg eat = signs
Initial Comment:
in the following task definition:
<exec program="msbuild.bat" append="true"
commandline="/p:PropName=Value" >
<arg value="/p:PropName=Value" />
<arg line="/p:PropName=Value" />
</exec>
in every instance of the /p:Propname=Value string any
sequence of = (equals) signs gets replaced by a single
space.
this can be prevented by surrounding the argument with
" 's like this <arg
value=""/p:PropName=Value"" />
but this is not very helpful when the value after the =
needs to be quoted with "'s too (as in /p:Platform="Any
CPU" ) because that ends up as "/p:Platform="Any CPU""
which doesn't hide the space at the commandline anymore.
Replacing the = by &eq; or several variants thereof
does not work
Replacing the inner quotes with ' or '
does not work either.
As there is no reference to this behaviour in the
documentation of <exec /> (or anywhere else that I
could find, the NAntWiki is mumbling something about a
database connection error) i have submitted this as a bug.
if the = replacing behaviour is intended then this bug
submission can be reclassified as a documentation bug.
the nant version used is Nant-0.85-nightly-2006-04-30

This is not a NAnt bug, but a limitation in the MS-DOS
