back slash at end of string option doesnt work about fluent-command-line-parser

[siywilliams]

The array passed into static void Main(string[] args) by the .Net framework seems to be different depending on whether you have the final '' character in it.

This article also explains the problem.

Fclp is expecting the .Net framework to have already parsed --dir "C:\temp\bar" --sk [veris into an array with 4 strings. This doesn't happen as the backslash seems to have escaped some parsing condition which has resulted in 2 strings. As a result it thinks the string "C:\temp\bar" --sk [veris is the value for the --dir option, which fails to parse because of the whitespace (it thinks the whitespace is seperating another value which is only valid if you're parsing into a List)

--dir "C:\temp\bar" --sk [veris

--dir "C:\temp\bar" --sk [veris

I've ended up resolving this via my own parser pulling from Environment.CommandLine, rather than rely on the incoming string[] args.

The funny rules on the .NET (and underneath that CommandLineToArgvW) are easily worked around if a little bit of logic is applied.

I've submitted my little project here. https://github.com/nelyom/cmdLineTokenizer
