Description PEREZ Philippe 2001-10-11 12:37:53 UTC
when I put my java sources at a usual window 2000 place, pointed out by a path  
like "C:\Documents and Settings\username\My Documents\...", I have the 
following error occurring at compilation time (using the netBeans "build" 
command):
"javac invalid argument: C:\Documents ...."
to avoid this error I have to use the dos rules to name directories "Documents 
and Settings" and "My Documents" into the "target" property of the different 
related mounted directories (for java files and class files), which is a little 
bit annoying.
