Bug #2193: Exec's "command" parameter should accept lists in addition to strings
http://projects.reductivelabs.com/issues/2193
Author: grim_radical
Status: Unreviewed
Priority: Normal
Assigned to:
Category: exec
Target version:
Complexity: Unknown
Affected version: 0.25.0
Keywords:
Currently, "exec" executes its "command" by passing a string to Kernel#exec,
which subjects the command to shell-expansion.
There are many use cases where the user knows the exact command they wish to
execute, and does not want the shell involved at all in the execution (say, for
example, you're trying to pass an argument to a command that has weird
characters in it that the shell would normally expand out).
Exec's "command" param should accept a list as input, where the list follows
the format accepted by Kernel#exec ("If multiple arguments are given, the
second and subsequent arguments are passed as parameters to command with no
shell expansion.").
I've attached a patch against 0.25 HEAD (minimally tested)...hopefully that can
be a starting point for development.
