http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=6754 Problem in Core Task "exec" attribute "dir" ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2002-07-16 15:16 ------- I have stumbled upon the same problem. First, I looked in this bug database and found the following previous similar reports: Bug 370 - poor description of the problem Bug 420 - marked invalid because of a problem with Runtime.exec() Allow me to add my own description of the problem: I'm using Ant to call autotools (the stuff that lets you type "configure" then "make" when you install a UNIX program) to build the (gasp) native portion of my program. I create a directory ${bin} in which I wish to compile. Here are the relevant statements from my build.xml: <property name="plaf" value="${os.name}/${os.arch}/${os.version}"/> <property name="bin" value="${plaf}/bin"/> <mkdir dir="${bin}"/> <exec executable="../../../../configure" dir="${bin}"/> When I perform the command by hand from the bin directory, it works fine. When Ant tries, it says this: .../native/build.xml:76: Execute failed: java.io.IOException: ../../../../configure: not found In this case, I'm running SunOs 5.6 with Sun JSDK 1.3.1_01. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
