---------------------------------------

             Summary: simpler (than OBJECT) parser for STRING parameters and properties
                 Key: WFLY-2464
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFLY-2464
             Project: WildFly
          Issue Type: Task
      Security Level: Public (Everyone can see)
          Components: CLI
            Reporter: Alexey Loubyansky
            Assignee: Alexey Loubyansky
             Fix For: 8.0.0.CR1


At the moment a general parser (which recognizes objects, lists, properties, etc) is used for properties and parameters of type STRING. The problem with this is that some characters that appear special in values of types OBJECT, PROPERTY, LIST, etc have to be escaped in values of type STRING. E.g.

--connection-url=jdbc:h2:~/unifiedpush;DB_CLOSE_DELAY=-1

Here the equals sign before -1 has to be escaped, otherwise the value will be treated as PROPERTY and the equals sign as a name/value separator.
