Hello Jayashree,

a. you are referencing a bug which has already been fixed, is there a new one for this ? b. with regards to the fix, I don't quite understand the issue, could you please provide a use case ? c. your regression test does not seem to be accurate it behaves the same with or without your fix, also you will need to provide a C++ test case in cmdtoargs.c as well see the bottom of that file.

Thanks Kumar

Hi All, Java.exe doesn't seems to process arguments ending with back slashes well , in windows only . I have added test scenario and changeset in the below webrev . http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~jviswana/7188114/webrev.01/ This seems to be introduced after the bug fix for 7188114 has be made into jdk8 . Thanks and Regards, Jayashree Viswanathan Hi Kumar ,

a. I am referencing an old bug because , that bug fix has caused this regression .

b. The use case is when there are backslashes at the end args for a java command using say -Dtest.argEndingInBackslash=a\\

JavaVM args: version 0x00010002, ignoreUnrecognized is JNI_FALSE, nOptions is 5 option[ 0] = '-Dsun.java.launcher.diag=true' option[ 1] = '-Djava.class.path=.' option[ 2] = '-Dtest.argEndingInBackslash=a' option[ 3] = '-Dsun.java.command=TestCmdLineParsing' option[ 4] = '-Dsun.java.launcher=SUN_STANDARD' 74439 micro seconds to InitializeJVM Main class is 'TestCmdLineParsing' App's argc is 0 9182 micro seconds to load main class ----_JAVA_LAUNCHER_DEBUG---- value of test.argEndingInBackslash = a

c. Sorry , I seem to have missed something , the above test case should help you exhibit the problem . Can you please let me know where to find or add such C++ test cases , as In the test cases bucket I know off is jtreg or JCKs only at the moment .

Thanks and Regards, Jayashree Viswanathan
