How to specify backslash '\' (e.g. Windows path) as a value in JBoss CLI

Solution Unverified - Updated -

Issue

  • How do I set backslash '\' (e.g. Windows path) as a value in JBoss CLI?

  • I tried the following CLI:

    /system-property=example.lib.dir:add(value="D:\example\lib")

    or

    /system-property=example.lib.dir:add(value="D:\\example\\lib")

    but backslash '\' disappeared and the system property example.lib.dir was set as "D:examplelib".
