| separate_arguments |
| ------------------ |
| |
| Parse space-separated arguments into a semicolon-separated list. |
| |
| :: |
| |
| separate_arguments(<var> <UNIX|WINDOWS>_COMMAND "<args>") |
| |
| Parses a unix- or windows-style command-line string "<args>" and |
| stores a semicolon-separated list of the arguments in <var>. The |
| entire command line must be given in one "<args>" argument. |
| |
| The UNIX_COMMAND mode separates arguments by unquoted whitespace. It |
| recognizes both single-quote and double-quote pairs. A backslash |
| escapes the next literal character (\" is "); there are no special |
| escapes (\n is just n). |
| |
| The WINDOWS_COMMAND mode parses a windows command-line using the same |
| syntax the runtime library uses to construct argv at startup. It |
| separates arguments by whitespace that is not double-quoted. |
| Backslashes are literal unless they precede double-quotes. See the |
| MSDN article "Parsing C Command-Line Arguments" for details. |

| |
| separate_arguments(VARIABLE) |
| |
| Convert the value of VARIABLE to a semi-colon separated list. All |
| spaces are replaced with ';'. This helps with generating command |
| lines. |
