multivalue option XML import/export error with space character delimiter
Reported by Greg Schueler | December 15th, 2011 @ 02:45 PM | in Rundeck 1.4.2 (closed)
If a space character is used as the delimiter for a multi-valued option, then import/export of the job as XML will not work correctly.
exported as <delimiter> </delimiter>,
and fails on import
fix: XML import/export needs to use XML attribute or otherwise quote or encode the element content

1) So looks like there is still some crack - space (as a delimiter) is a valid character in GUI, but it's not exportable.
2) If I use quotes (single quotes as well as double quotes have their own limitations), the for loop in the shell script doesn't treat the multiple values of the variable, as an array. It works as an array only if space (without any quotes) is used as a delimiter.looks like you made some code change, let me know how i can pick that (steps to upgrade my rundeck without losing my work). I'm still on rundeck 1.3.0.

fyi: there is a workaround: use YAML instead of XML format
The code change is in the current development branch, so will be part of release 1.4.2.
it could be nominated to be part of a new 1.3 point release (1.3.3)
