Probably not the advice you are looking for, but I'll share it anyway... I strongly recommend against using any of the following characters in file names or pathnames. @$#%*!~()\|/?`,;:<> (perhaps others as well)
Programming languages and shells often treat these characters differently than alpha-numeric characters. Programmers know this, and often write their programs without anticipating that these characters might be used in file names and path names. I recommend avoiding such characters in file and path names to save yourself from this, and other such headaches. -Rob Anderson > -----Original Message----- > From: TSD Contractor2 [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Thursday, September 27, 2007 3:43 AM > To: user@ant.apache.org > Subject: Optional scp task does not accept remote paths with > the '@' symbol in them > > APOLOGIES FOR THE DOUBLE POSTING (OUTLOOK SCREWED UP THE ORIGINAL) > > Tried running the following command using Ant 1.7: > > <scp > file="[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/var/mqm/qmgrs/LIGWGWAY1/@ipcc > /AMQCLCHL. > TAB" localTodir="client_conn_tables" password="blah" trust="yes"/> > > And get the following: > no remote path in > [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/var/mqm/qmgrs/LIGWGWAY1/@ipcc/AMQCLCHL.TAB > > This used to work in Ant 1.6.5!! > > It looks like some over-zealous checks are being made on the > remote path > which get confused by the second '@' symbol in the remote > path.
