I'm not sure what Mustella is written in, but would something generic like this
work?
If a string needs to be turned into an array then maybe... Use the "-" as the
first delimiter to break apart the options and use a temp array. Then use the
"=" to break out the names from the values.
Keeping two arrays with the same number of elements. One array stores the
argument name and the second argument value.
//Declare arrays/string
string [] saNames = {"Option1", "Option2", "Option3"};
string [] saValues = {"My value with spaces", "test2", "test 3"};
string sCombinedOptions = "";
//Loop through all elements in arrays
for (;;)
{
//Combine names / values.
sCombinedOptions += saNames[currentItem] + "=""" + saValues[currentItem] +
""" ";
}
//Add the command line and options.
"path\mxmlc.exe" + " " + sCombinedOptions;

That ought to work, but does not. The Mustella code pieces together a large
string with all of the options on it, then turns the string into a String[] by
using space as the delimiter. Thus
-source-path="C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft
Shared\MSInfo\MSInfo32.exe"
turns into
[] = -source-path="C:\Program Files\Common [] = Files\Microsoft [] =
Shared\MSInfo\MSInfo32.exe"
And it does this several times (turning the array into a string, inserting
other args, back to an array) to build up the argument list. Ultimately, the
array of options is passed over to mxmlc to execute, so it does need to turn
into an array of options. I was working on putting everything into an ArrayList
but more and more code needed to change and then I was getting errors from
mxmlc saying parameters were being mixed which I didn't understand since it was
getting the same parameters in the same order.
So I have to re-think the approach.
