From: Vladimir Sizikov Date: 2009-10-27T22:24:03+09:00 Subject: [ruby-core:26359] [Bug #2016] Windows (win32.c) command line argument parsing bug Issue #2016 has been updated by Vladimir Sizikov. In JRuby world, we don't do that additional special handling of arguments on Windows, and people keep asking about non-working single-quotes and it *is* confusing, when jruby -e "puts 5" works, but jruby -e 'puts 5 ' doesn't work on Windows. So it seems to me that MRI does the right thing adding that extra-processing of the arguments so that the very same command line would work on Unixes and Windows... ---------------------------------------- http://redmine.ruby-lang.org/issues/show/2016 ---------------------------------------- http://redmine.ruby-lang.org
