#1799: Fix pipe symbol with ^ workaround
--------------------+----------------------------------------
Reporter:  todd     |      Owner:

Priority:  major    |  Milestone:
 Version:  0.8.3p1  |   Keywords:  vc10, pipe, windows, shell
--------------------+----------------------------------------
 Class buildbot.steps.vstudio.VC10 can't handle config names with a pipe
 (|) in it, e.g. "Release|Win32".

 A workaround is to use buildbpt.steps.shell.ShellCommand and escape the
 pipe with a ^, e.g.:

 {{{
 ShellCommand(command=['devenv.com', 'Solution.sln', '/Build',
 'Release^|Win32'])
 }}}


 The following would *not* work, because the ^ is missing:

 {{{
 ShellCommand(command=['devenv.com', 'Solution.sln', '/Build',
 'Release|Win32'])
 }}}


 Maybe this workaround can be used to fix this bug. One simple solution
 would be to search for pipes (|) and replace them with ^|.
