Hi, So it is possible to tune environment variables before launching a process. Now comes the question : how could we extend the "exec" task to support this. The problem to me is that ANT expects to know the name of the parameters you can set in a task. Whereas in our case, we don't know them in advance. That is : somebody may want to set "DISPLAY" and "TERM", while somebody else needs to change "CLASSPATH".
So it seems a direct use of ANT notation is not enough our case. I am curious to know what the ANT "gurus" are thinking of this issue. But it seems to me a feature useful to have in "exec", even though it doesn't seem immediate to implement. Julien
