[jira] [Commented] (MESOS-1491) Improve subprocess executing command with arguments

["Benjamin Hindman (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-1491?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14033188#comment-14033188 ] 

Benjamin Hindman commented on MESOS-1491:
-----------------------------------------

Providing an overload of subprocess that takes an argv SGTM, but FYI [~jieyu] is working on some abstractions in Mesos for launching operations that handle passing flags for you (rather than even having to specify arguments, you can just set the flags!). This is likely what we'll want to use ultimately for all of our utilities, things like mesos-usage, mesos-health-checker, etc.

> The current way for subprocess to execute commands with arguments is to build up the whole command string with arguments. However, whoever does this needs to be careful about escaping quotes or semicolons, etc. 
> The better way is to use execve and pass in a list of arguments instead.
