10317,boost::test corrupts contents of argv if a paramter contains whitespace,Andrew Marshall <planetmarshalluk@…>,Raffi Enficiaud,"
command line arguments containing spaces are corrupted by the test framework's internal command line parser. This is a problem if passing additional arguments to the test executable containing, for example, paths with spaces.

Compile and run the following with the argument ""root\\foo bar\\file.txt""

{{{#!cpp

#include <string>
#include <boost/test/unit_test.hpp>

using namespace boost::test;

void command_line_parser_preserves_whitespace(const std::string & after) {
// this will fail as after = ""root\\foo""
  BOOST_REQUIRE_EQUAL(std::string(""root\\foo bar\\file.txt"", after);
}

bool init_function() {
     framework::master_test_suite().
        add( BOOST_TEST_CASE( boost::bind( &command_line_parser_preserves_whitespace, std::string path(framework::master_test_suite.path().argv[1]) ) ) )
    return true;
}

int main( int argc, char* argv[] ) {
    return ::boost::unit_test::unit_test_main( &init_function, argc, argv );
}
