FULL PRODUCT VERSION : java version "1.5.0_06" Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_06-b05) Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.5.0_06-b05, mixed mode) ADDITIONAL OS VERSION INFORMATION : Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600] A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM : This routine isn't properly returning arguments with spaces in them. This is a problem for us when trying to parse -javaagent flags with spaces for file paths. STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM : >javac -target 1.5 EchoArgs.java >java -D"value=one two three" EchoArgs EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR : EXPECTED - -Dvalue=one two three one two three ACTUAL - -Dvalue=one two three one two three REPRODUCIBILITY : This bug can be reproduced always. ---------- BEGIN SOURCE ---------- public class EchoArgs { public static void main(String args[]) { for (String str: java.lang.management.ManagementFactory.getRuntimeMXBean().getInputArguments()) { System.out.println(str); } System.out.println(System.getProperty("value")); } } ---------- END SOURCE ---------- CUSTOMER SUBMITTED WORKAROUND : assume that arguments start with a - and hope that no other values do (i.e., there isn't anything reliable)
