I have a situation where I'm using the exec task to run a program. The underlying program is sensitive to the use of double or single quotes. At the command line without Ant I can get two different results from the program I'm calling. When I put this call into Ant I get the result from having used the single quotes. So I ave tried an argument that looks like this:

argument="-a 'test'" and I have tried argument='-a "test"'

both are accepted by Ant, but I get the same result from the underlying program in both cases. It's liek the quotes are being normalized to some standard. What I would like to see is the actual command as it is executed with the program and its arguments.

There aren't any parameters to this task to capture that information, any idea how I might get this information?
