How to specify package/module in CVS task in ant build.xml, if my package/module name has spaces?

In build.xml for my project, for checking out the codes, I am writing the following:

    <cvs cvsRoot=":pserver:[email protected]:/CVSREPO_CCP_MIG" dest="${basedir}" package="My Test Project"/>

The following is getting displayed in the console:

  [cvs] cvs server: cannot find module `My' - ignored
  [cvs] cvs server: cannot find module `Test' - ignored
  [cvs] cvs server: cannot find module `Project' - ignored
  [cvs] cvs checkout: No CVSROOT specified!  Please use the `-d' option
  [cvs] cvs [checkout aborted]: or set the CVSROOT environment variable.

If I perform the same checkout using a project which doesn't have any spaces in module name, the code checkout is successful.

The Ant version is 1.7.x.

Solution

  • I got right by modifying the CVS task tag to:

    <cvs cvsRoot=":pserver:[email protected]:/CVSREPO_CCP_MIG" dest="${basedir}" package="&quot;My Test Project&quot;"/>

    Now it works!
