https://issues.dlang.org/show_bug.cgi?id=19502 Issue ID: 19502 Summary: windows command line arguments wrongly split Product: D Version: D2 Hardware: All OS: Windows Status: NEW Severity: major Priority: P1 Component: druntime Assignee: nobody puremagic.com Reporter: john.loughran.colvin gmail.com Druntime currently uses CommandLineToArgvW to deal with the command line args on windows, which is a close but not exact match to how the C runtime on windows works. In the case where the command line looks like this: "C:\test\"\blah.exe Druntime using CommandLineToArgvW parses this as ["C:\\test\\", "\\blah.exe"] note the 2 !!! arguments. The c runtime does ["C:\test\\blah.exe"] The result is that programs that look at args might behave completely differently depending on exactly how the path to them is written. --
