[jira] Created: (GSHELL-117) GShell doesn't support "\" in the path
in Widnows platform
GShell doesn't support "\" in the path in Widnows platform
----------------------------------------------------------
Key: GSHELL-117
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GSHELL-117
Project: GShell
Issue Type: Bug
Security Level: public (Regular issues)
Components: CLI
Affects Versions: 1.0-alpha-1, 1.0-alpha-2
Environment: Windows
Reporter: YunFeng Ma
Assignee: Jason Dillon
Fix For: 1.0-alpha-2, 1.0-alpha-3
Run the following command and get errors in Windows
{noformat}
deploy/deploy H:\FTP_ROOT\Build\cviewer.war
ERROR TokenMgrError: Lexical error at line 1, column 18. Encountered: "F" (70), after : "\\"
{noformat}
It works fine for double slash:
deploy/deploy H:\\FTP_ROOT\\Build\\cviewer.war
It's not convenience for windows users.

-------------------------------------
Yes, most certainly there is work left to be done on the interactive shell, especially related to the syntax parser.

Does it work with the windows path in quotes (single and/or double)?

Jason Warner commented on GSHELL-117:
-------------------------------------
I'm not sure if that would work or not. The error occurs during parsing of the command line, which occurs before gshell attempts to determine what the command is or what arguments are present. Any character replacement would have to be done blindly, without any knowledge of context. I'm not familiar enough with all the use cases of gshell to accurately predict whether this could cause failures in certain situations or not. Alternatively, we could have a check for the specific commands in which a file name could be provided and have preparsing done before the command reaches the parser on just those commands. That seems like a really large hack, though, and is really not a solution in my mind, although it's probably the easiest solution to implement that has the least chance of breaking other commands. I'm having trouble coming up with a fix that I'd personally be comfortable with short of figuring out just what the parser hates so much about '\' and teaching it how to play nice. I'm not familiar enough with the parser to estimate how difficult that would be. Maybe someone who is more familiar with the parser or gshell as a whole could comment on that, or anything else I just said for that matter.

Kevan Miller commented on GSHELL-117:
-------------------------------------
There must be something we can do for this.
IIUC, either of the following would work:
deploy/deploy H:\\FTP_ROOT\\Build\\cviewer.war
or
deploy/deploy H:/FTP_ROOT/Build/cviewer.war
I'd much prefer a native-windows solution. A native windows path (e.g. H:\FTP_ROOT\Build\cviewer.war) should work. Can we detect a windows environment and perform some simple substitutions? '\' -> '\\' or '\' -> '/'

FYI, this is because the JavaCC gshell-parser's string handling is based on the JavaCC java parsers string handling...

Jason Dillon commented on GSHELL-117:
-------------------------------------
This should only be a problem when running the interactive shell, which isn't really ready for production use yet.
But from the platform command line this should work fine:
{noformat}
gsh.bat deploy/deploy H:\FTP_ROOT\Build\cviewer.war
{noformat}
The above does not invoke the parser, as the tokens are already split up into a String[] for the main() invoke.
However, using the -c flag would not:
{noformat}
gsh.bat -c "deploy/deploy H:\FTP_ROOT\Build\cviewer.war"
{noformat}
Because this will cause the parser to be used to tokenize the input.

-------------------------------------
Interesting. Didn't realize that the command line would be parsed differently than the interactive shell. That certainly helps.
So you can pass native window paths on the command line or use "\\" or "/" in the interactive shell. Sounds good. Agreed that we should recommend command line execution. Looks like we have some work to get a fully-functional interactive shell...

-------------------------------------
I looked at this issue briefly for Geronimo-4106 before I noticed this issue. I checked the use of both single and double quotes and noted that neither resolved the issue. Forward slashes can be used instead of backslashes to get this to work properly.
