How do you see Windows objecting?
The colon will be embedded in a string that is passed, as all args
are, through the asadmin.bat script to Java.
I tried a quick experiment with asadmin on Windows, trying
asadmin undeploy junk:4
even though the version of GlassFish I have does not know about
versions. The error message reported that junk:4 is not a deployed
application.
So that suggests that the argument is being passed the way we want
(asadmin.bat uses %* to pass all the script's arguments on to Java).
GlassFish would not be treating the name as a file path, if that's
what had you concerned.
Or was there something else?
