hi
here is testcase to reproduce the problem
#include <stdio.h>
#include <assert.h>
int main(int argc, char**argv)
{
printf("argv %s",argv[1]);
open(argv[1],"r");
assert(fp);
return 0;
}
build
make ¤±.txt in directory.
and run in cmd.exe
type,
a "¤±.txt"
and it complains file can't be opened.
and you can see argv[1] is passed with preserved quote (") although it is
invoked in winshell
it must be eliminted when it is transduced to cygwin environment.
but when parent process is cygwin, it gives no complaint
>strace a "¤±.txt"
in result, is it designed to do so?
(well i assume it bug.)
if not, how this can be avoided??
