All,

Running something like: 

  jtreg -javaoption:-Xmixed jdk/test/com/sun/jdi/RedefineStep.sh 

Will print an error message: 

  test/com/sun/jdi/ShellScaffold.sh: line 885: -Xmixed: command not found 

The test will not fail, but the -javaoption argument will be ignored.

The fix is to add some missing quotes:

--- a/test/com/sun/jdi/ShellScaffold.sh
+++ b/test/com/sun/jdi/ShellScaffold.sh
@@ -882,7 +882,7 @@

 startDebuggee()
 {
-    args=$TESTVMOPTS $TESTJAVAOPTS
+    args="$TESTVMOPTS $TESTJAVAOPTS"

     if [ ! -z "$args" ] ; then
        echo "--Starting debuggee with args from TESTVMOPTS and/or TESTJAVAOPTS: $args”


Thanks,
/Staffan
