[GitHub] [ant] mataha opened a new pull request, #205: Fix `--release` param check in bootstrap.bat

mataha opened a new pull request, #205:
URL: https://github.com/apache/ant/pull/205

   The following check will always fail silently due to batch `echo` always taking strings literally - including double quotes:
   
   ```batchfile
   echo "public class JavacVersionCheck {}" >%CLASSDIR%\JavacVersionCheck.java
   "%JAVAC%" --release 8 -d %CLASSDIR% %CLASSDIR%\JavacVersionCheck.java >nul 2>&1
   ```
   
   With the following error message:
   
   ```javac
   JavacVersionCheck.java:1: error: class, interface, or enum expected
   "public class JavacVersionCheck {}"
   ^
   1 error
   ```
   
   Even with that fixed, the next statement will crash and burn on systems that do not have Command Extensions enabled (e.g. invoked with `cmd /y`):
   
   ```batchfile
   IF %ERRORLEVEL% EQU 0 SET JAVAC_RELEASE_VERSION="--release 8"
   ```
   
   With the following error message:
   
   ```
   equ was unexpected at this time.
   ```
   
   In order to accommodate that, those checks have been corrected.

   Hello @mataha, what you propose here looks OK to me. However, I haven't been able to reproduce the issue that prompted this change. Is there some specific Windows version where this can be reproduced or how did you notice this issue?

   Hello,
   
   Try these minimal examples:
   
   ```batchfile
   cmd /d /y /c "echo "public class JavacVersionCheck {}" >check.java && javac check.java"
   ```
   
   ```batchfile
   cmd /d /y /c "if %ERRORLEVEL% equ 0 echo Success."
   ```
   
   As for how I've noticed the issue: I wanted to analyze the bootstrapping code (having come here from [Bootstrappable Builds](https://bootstrappable.org/best-practices.html)); as I write a lot of Batch scripts as a result of my hobby, the quotes in `echo` struck me as a red flag immediately.

   These, of course, can be run on all Windows versions.
