No, you idiot.
<http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/bb776391%28v=vs.85%29.aspx>
If the argument is:
C:\foo bar\
...quotes are needed around it to escape the space:
"C:\foo bar\"
...but a quote at the end will be misinterpreted as a literal quote, and
result in:
C:\foo bar"
...if it's allowed at all. The documentation was not clear on whether
quotes needed to be around the whole argument, or could be used within:
C:\foo" "bar
But then you have to watch for:
C:\foo\ bar\
...which has to be escaped as something like these:
C:\foo"\ "bar\
"C:\foo\ bar"\
The simplest option might be to do as before, but just put the 'final'
quote immediately before any trailing backslashes:
import java.util.*;
import java.util.regex.*;
public final class WindowsArgumentGenerator {
private WindowsArgumentGenerator() { }
private static final Pattern slashSequence = Pattern.compile("(\\\\*)\"");
private static final Pattern spaces = Pattern.compile("\\s");
private static boolean needsQuotes(CharSequence s) {
return spaces.matcher(s).find();
}
public static String
generateWindowsArgument(List<? extends CharSequence> args) {
StringBuilder out = new StringBuilder();
String sep = "";
for (final CharSequence arg : args) {
out.append(sep);
sep = " ";
final boolean quoted = needsQuotes(arg);
if (quoted)
out.append('"');
final int startOffset = out.length();
Matcher m = slashSequence.matcher(arg);
int lastEnd = 0;
while (m.find()) {
out.append(arg.subSequence(lastEnd, m.start()));
lastEnd = m.end();
final String slashes = m.group(1);
/* Double the slashes and add one, then add the
* quote. */
out.append(slashes)
.append(slashes)
.append('\\')
.append("\"");
}
out.append(arg.subSequence(lastEnd, arg.length()));
if (quoted) {
int i = out.length();
while (i > startOffset && out.charAt(i - 1) == '\\')
i--;
out.insert(i, '"');
}
}
return out.toString();
}
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
for (int i = 0; i < args.length; i++)
System.out.printf("argv[%d]=[%s]%n", i, args[i]);
System.out.println(generateWindowsArgument(Arrays.asList(args)));
}
}
Trying it out (in bash):
$ java WindowsArgumentGenerator 'hello world'
argv[0]=[hello world]
"hello world"
$ java WindowsArgumentGenerator '"hello world"'
argv[0]=["hello world"]
"\"hello world\""
$ java WindowsArgumentGenerator '"hello" "world"'
argv[0]=["hello" "world"]
"\"hello\" \"world\""
$ java WindowsArgumentGenerator 'hello" " world'
argv[0]=[hello" " world]
"hello\" \" world"
$ java WindowsArgumentGenerator 'hello' '""' 'world'
argv[0]=[hello]
argv[1]=[""]
argv[2]=[world]
hello \"\" world
$ java WindowsArgumentGenerator 'c:\program files\' 'world'
argv[0]=[c:\program files\]
argv[1]=[world]
"c:\program files"\ world
$ java WindowsArgumentGenerator 'c:\program files\\' 'world'
argv[0]=[c:\program files\\]

"c:\program files"\\ world
$ java WindowsArgumentGenerator 'c:\program files\\\' 'world'
