Product .exe does not start if # is in folder name

I was wondering if there is a specific reason, why my eclipse product .exe does not start, if the parent directory of the exe-file contains a #. I am 开发者_如何学Pythonusing Windows XP (SP3) and exported my eclipse application. The resulting .exe file saluts me with the following screen:

_{(source: iachelini.de)}

Any ideas?

Just a guess.

The launcher is implemented in a way that the command line options are interpreted by a batch script ... and the # is interpreted as the beginning of a line comment.

Edit:

The 'eclipse.exe' loads the 'eclipse.ini'. Here you can make comments with a # at the beginning of the line. This does not prove that eclipse uses a batch script for loading (to be sure one should look at the source), but it is an hint that the comment-assumption is valid.

My first guess was wrong. The problem has nothing to do with comments or a batch script. It's a bug in the java code of eclipse. I have filled a bug report:
