Description
The solution for JDK-8030961 needs to be documented as follows: <Release Note Text> To overcome an incompatible change in the VisualStudio 2010 with setargv.obj, the java launcher uses its own argument parser/processor as outlined in the Release notes for JDK-7146424 in JDK 7. A side effect of the above fix, is that, the escaping of quotes and spaces must be done according to the Windows specification. The right way right way to quote a command line containing spaces in a directory is as follows: "c:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0\bin\java.exe" -cp "c:\Some Dir\" SomeMain or c:\\"Program Files\"\Java\jdk1.8.0\bin\java.exe -cp "c:\Some Dir\" SomeMain or short filename for non-8dot3 format files obtained from dir /X c:\Progra~1\Java\jdk1.8.0\bin\java.exe -cp "c:\Some Dir\" SomeMain The first example is the correct way to use the quotes, and this is how the Windows command interpreter (cmd.exe) auto completes user commands and thus quotes arguments. </Release Note Text>
