Change subject: cli: Support escape of double quote in strings ...................................................................... cli: Support escape of double quote in strings Currently strings support escape sequences, but they aren't replaced by the corresponding characters. For example, in the following command: # update vm myvv --name "My \"VM\"" The name of the VM will be set to exactly this: My \"VM\" Note that the backslash isn't removed. This makes it impossible to use strings that represent data that contain double quotes, in particular it makes it impossible to use XML documents, which are needed when setting the OVF representation of a VM. This patch changes the CLI so that the escape character preceding the double quote will be removed, thus the above command will result in the following name: My "VM" Change-Id: Ied53ac577efa3395438892de535c35cd068a12bd Bug-Url: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1211670 Signed-off-by: Juan Hernandez <juan.hernandez@redhat.com> --- M src/cli/parser.py 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 0 deletions(-) Approvals: Juan Hernandez: Verified; Looks good to me, approved -- To view, visit https://gerrit.ovirt.org/40690 To unsubscribe, visit https://gerrit.ovirt.org/settings Gerrit-MessageType: merged Gerrit-Change-Id: Ied53ac577efa3395438892de535c35cd068a12bd Gerrit-PatchSet: 2 Gerrit-Project: ovirt-engine-cli Gerrit-Branch: master Gerrit-Owner: Juan Hernandez <juan.hernandez@redhat.com> Gerrit-Reviewer: Juan Hernandez <juan.hernandez@redhat.com> Gerrit-Reviewer: Ravi Nori <rnori@redhat.com> Gerrit-Reviewer: automation@ovirt.org
