Ruby Forum JRuby > "*" in runtime argument

Hi,

I'm having trouble passing a simple sql statement(String) to my script
through runtime argument ;
c:\work>jruby test.rb "select * from sample;"


JRuby 1.1.1 will return "select zzz.txt from sample;" as a result of: p
ARGV[0]

Seems like "*" is replaced with a file name in a current directory
("zzz.txt" is a name of a file exists in c:\work) ... Is this a normal
behavior?

Just for reference, here's results on JRuby1.0.1 and Ruby-1.8.6 ;

Ruby-1.8.6:  "select * from friends;"
JRuby1.0.1: nil


(Windows XP pro., / Java SE 6)

Thank you in advance for your help.

It's a bug, an artifact of JRuby's crufty launcher batch files. Can
you file an issue on this to http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/JRUBY?
Thanks.
