The batch script execution started failing with the latest cygwin version 1.7.28. The exit code thrown is 255 and batch script is not able to process the command line arguments. When I try to print the command line argument(%1) its printing both the argument name and value. This was working fine with Cygwin 1.7.27 and looks to be regression in 1.7.28 eg. Batch script (test.bat) @echo off :setArgs if ""%1""=="""" goto doneSetArgs set CMD_LINE_ARGS=%CMD_LINE_ARGS% %1 echo %1=== echo %2=== shift shift goto setArgs :doneSetArgs Cygwin.1.7.27 the output of the script would be #./test.bat OS=Win OS=== Win=== Cygwin.1.7.28 the output of the script is #./test.bat OS=Win "OS=Win"=== === Is this a known issue ? Where can I download Cygwin 1.7.27 until I find a workaround/fix to this issue ? thanks, Prakash -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
