visual studio - How to properly handle /p arguments in MSBuild with cygwin -
currently, trying find way cygwin handle quotations in cmd. if run command in cygwin:
msbuild.exe /p:test="foo;bar"\;test2="foo;bar" my.sln
bash strip double quotes out each of properties, , msbuild fail error message.
msbuild : error msb1006: property not valid. switch: bar
escaping double quotes , semicolons command
msbuild.exe /p:test=\"foo;bar\"\;test2=\"foo;bar\" my.sln
does allow msbuild compile project. however, properties set not expect them be. running /v:diag, there 1 property set:
what expected (based on running build cmd): test = foo;bar test2 = foo;bar got: test = "foo;bar";test2="foo;bar"
my guess msbuild interpreting quotes , semicolons literally , processing 1 big environment variable. there easy way process semicolons , quotes in cmd? unfortunately, build relies on these environment variables function properly.
