Issue with Command Line arguments which got spaces in it

Question

I have a Java program which I\'m executing in a Linux environment through a bash script.

This is my simple bash script, which accepts a String.

#!/bi         


        

Answer 1

When you pass command line arguments with spaces, they are taken as space separated arguments, and are splitted on space. So, you don't actually have a single argument, but multiple arguments.

If you want to pass arguments with spaces, use quotes:

java classname "Apple Inc. 2013 Jul 05 395.00 Call"
