Handle whitespaces in iwextattr

I tried to use the command-line tool "iwextattr" to get the extended attributes of a file. However the file name contains whitespace, here is the error message I got "ERROR:00920 Error Locating /default/main/workarea/pdf/How to change user information.pdf".

I need to put this command into a perl script as well. Do anyone know how to fix this problem besides changing the file name?

Thanks.

use double quotes around filename like so:

Y:\default\main\WORKAREA\mywa>iwextattr -s name=myval "test with space.txt"

Y:\default\main\WORKAREA\mywa>iwextattr -l "test with space.txt"
name=myval
