ClassPath with spaces cause undefined class errors

           Summary: ClassPath with spaces cause undefined class errors
           Product: Fop
           Version: 0.20.5
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows XP
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: fop-dev@xml.apache.org
        ReportedBy: zeimusu@yahoo.co.uk
                CC: zeimusu@yahoo.co.uk


When I started fop I got an error about class "and" not being defined. After
poking around a bit I found the problem was the fop.bat script. It was trying to
execute
java -cp C:\Documents and settings\james\...
and it iterpreted "and" as the class to execute, and threw the error.

My patch was to quote the classpath in fop.bat, that is:
change 
  java -cp %LOCALCLASSPATH% org.apache.fop.apps.Fop %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8
to
  java -cp "%LOCALCLASSPATH%" org.apache.fop.apps.Fop %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8

perhaps that breaks something in W9x, I haven't checked.
