Start dev mode in a container fails when there is a space character in the path

[turkeylurkey]

When you use the command mvn liberty:devc to start dev mode in a directory and the directory has a space character somewhere in the name then an error is printed and the command fails.

The issue also occurs when you use Gradle. One directory is called demo devmode.

We fixed this several months ago. Not sure how it's happening again?

@turkeylurkey What version of the plugin were you using? The message you showed above is not used in any recent version.

It now prints:

The fix was in LMP 3.10.x and LGP 3.8.x.

Thanks for the update. Our test case is using 3.6.2.
