in case of a unix env, URL should be used with forward slashes ('/') instead of backslashes

and in case any string needs to be used backslashes, they need to accompany another backslash. this is because backslash acts as a escape sequence character (remember \n)

so to avoid such a situation, use "\\". the ant interpreter will interpret the same as a single "\" and the task will be accomplished

Hi Folks,

I am using jdbc driver to connect database. I have 2 database. The url
is like this 10.23.23.1, another one is 10.23.23.2\sql5t9.
I am using jtds drvie  to connect: jdbc:jtds:sqlserver://10.23.23.1  it
works fine. But for 10.23.23.2\sql5t9,  is not working. message shows:
java.sql.SQLException: Unknown server host name '10.23.23.2\sql5t9'.
Could you tell what is reason why? Thank you

Its up to the driver how it handles URLS; ant just loads the specific driver and calls driver.connect(URL). If the driver is rejecting it, it musnt support backslashes. Given the requirement to be a URL, which means with forward slashes, this isn't that surprising.
