problem with spaces in a perforce location

• Complexity:

  Intermediate

I am experiencing problems when it tries to create a clientspec from a perforce depot that has spaces in the location.

For example: //depot/ABC/word1 word2/foo

I tried quoting it with " as that is what you do in perforce and this is the log results:

jvm 1 | 2007-04-17 12:00:48,712 [Thread-2] INFO ScmManager - Executing: p4 -u xxx -P ******** client -i
jvm 1 | 2007-04-17 12:00:48,742 [Thread-2] DEBUG ScmManager - Updating clientspec:
jvm 1 | Client: xxx-XXXX-MavenSCM-C:\build\working\2
jvm 1 | Root: c:\build\working\2
jvm 1 | Owner: xxx
jvm 1 | View:
jvm 1 | "//depot/ABC/word1 word2/foo"/... //xxx-XXXX-MavenSCM-C:\build\working\2/...
jvm 1 | Description:
jvm 1 | Created by maven-scm-provider-perforce
jvm 1 |

As you can see it just does this: "//depot/ABC/word1 word2/foo"/...

What it needs to be is "//depot/ABC/word1 word2/foo/..."

I tried various other means of escaping the space but it didn't work.

So instead of me needing to quote because of a space it a very simple fix would be to have the plugin quote ALL perforce locations regardless of a space or not.

Hope this helps
