You are missing that Windows is not Un*x. On Windows, each application is expected to do their own globbing (if it cares to do it at all), since cmd doesn't do that. > The script IS my own, if you execute the script as suggested what > results did you get with cygwin/windows? I can't run your script since you didn't say how you call it or what the version of Java is that you were using. I did point out that while you were looking at bash, you ignored the fact that Java itself would attempt to expand glob characters. But you can make a new empty directory, put these two files in there: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- #!/bin/bash # this is t1.sh set -f ARGS=$@ ARGQ="$@" echo "noglob/unquoted/unquoted:" $ARGS ./t2.sh "-->" $ARGS "<--" echo "noglob/quoted/unquoted: " $ARGQ ./t2.sh "-->" $ARGQ "<--" echo "noglob/unquoted/quoted: $ARGS" ./t2.sh "-->" "$ARGS" "<--" echo "noglob/quoted/quoted: $ARGQ" ./t2.sh "-->" "$ARGQ" "<--" set +f echo " glob/unquoted/unquoted:" $ARGS ./t2.sh "-->" $ARGS "<--" echo " glob/quoted/unquoted: " $ARGQ ./t2.sh "-->" $ARGQ "<--" echo " glob/unquoted/quoted: $ARGS" ./t2.sh "-->" "$ARGS" "<--" echo " glob/quoted/quoted: $ARGQ" ./t2.sh "-->" "$ARGQ" "<--" --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- #!/bin/bash # this is t2.sh set -f echo " ==> noglob/unquoted: " $@ echo " ==> noglob/quoted: $@" set +f echo " ==> glob/unquoted: " $@ echo " ==> glob/quoted: $@" --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- make them both executable and then run t1.sh.

Apart from > the fact that I dont require java 7, what is the expected cygwin bash > glob behaviour? Maybe the above example convinces you that bash does respect the noglob switch, even on Cygwin. What Java does when it gets a command line with a globbing character is a different matter. It seems that it expects the glob character inside quotes or even quoted quotes, depending on version. Note that the outermost quotes will be removed by bash before Java gets to see it, so you will have to do something like "\"$@\"" or even "\\\"$@\\\"" to get this construct onto the commandline of Java unharmed.
