[GitHub] ant pull request #25: fix problems with argument handling of trailing space ...
GitHub user jwadamson opened a pull request:
https://github.com/apache/ant/pull/25
fix problems with argument handling of trailing space and sed/echo quirks
So this is where I have landed through trial and error on improving the argument handling code.
Tested with:
mac bsd_sed+bash
ubuntu gnu_sed+dash
ubuntu gnu_sed+ksh93
ubuntu gnu_sed+zsh
We should ask mailing list to test on default Solaris, AIX, and HPUX platforms.
If they experience problems due to sed versions, they can test out awk as an esc_tool alternative value. If neither works consistently we can add some bash/zsh/ksh93 detection to use a bashism when available to avoid sed and awk when possible..
Attached is a manual test.sh and test.xml which echos some passed in properties to demonstrate correct handling of special characters and whitespace/newline scenarios.

It seems not. :-(
Solaris, when matching posix spec isn't enough.
I'm going to try to get up to speed on current state if I can. This is just maddening.

Thanks, Jeff, I've merged your changes. Let's hope people with access to the more problematic OSes give it a try.
