Summary: <exec> Task Always Returns 0 for Batch Files on Windows XP
Initial Comment:
I\\\'m encountering an issue with the <exec> task on batch files in my NAnt
project files. When running on Windows XP SP 3 (but not Windows Vista or
Windows Server 2008) and using NAnt 0.85 or 0.91alpha2, the <exec> task will
always succeed (returning an error code of 0) regardless of what the executed
batch file returned.
As an example, I wrote the following NAnt target:
<target name=\\\"build\\\">
<exec program=\\\"fail.bat\\\"
failonerror=\\\"false\\\" resultproperty=\\\"makeall.result\\\">
</exec>
<echo message=\\\"Makeall task returned result ${makeall.result}\\\"/>
<fail if=\\\"${int::parse(makeall.result) != 0}\\\">Encountered
${makeall.result} errors.</fail>
</target>
which calls the following batch file:
exit /b 1
Under normal operation (Windows Vista), the result of running NAnt is:
build:
[exec] C:\\\\Users\\\\Will\\\\Code>exit /b 1
[exec] C:\\\\Users\\\\Will\\\\Code\\\\fail.build(6,4):
[exec] External Program Failed:
C:\\\\Users\\\\Will\\\\Code\\\\fail.bat (return code was 1)
[echo] Makeall task returned result 1
BUILD FAILED - 1 non-fatal error(s), 0 warning(s)
But on two different Windows XP SP3 machines, the result of running NAnt is:
build:
[exec] C:\\\\Documents and Settings\\\\Will\\\\My Documents\\\\My
Code>exit /b 1
[echo] Makeall task returned result 0
BUILD SUCCEEDED

Virtualization is moving to the mainstream and overtaking non-virtualized
environment for deploying applications. Does it make network security
easier or more difficult to achieve? Read this whitepaper to separate the
two and get a better understanding.
