[jira] Commented: (MPJAVA-4) Compile fails using forked compiler when directory contains spaces

Laurent Sellin commented on MPJAVA-4:
-------------------------------------

As indicated in the external reference, setting maven.compile.fork=no (eg. in build.properties) seems to be a good workaround for the moment if you use file path with spaces under windows...
I am looking forward to see this solved, as it is very blocking (for someone new to maven it is not easy to solve).

> Running the java:compile goal usually runs fine.  However, if you want to fork it to use another java compiler, the compile fails since javac treats the first section of the source directory as an argument.
> Thus a project under 'c:\project\my project' fails with the error 'javac: invalid argument: c:\project\my'
> I tried to look and see what's causing this, but couldn't figure out why the directory was treated differently when forked.
