What I did was write 2 files - build.xml does the actual build, but mail.xml
just uses the exec task to "call" build.xml and sent the output to a log
file, which is them mailed using the mail task. After I wrote this (my first
day using Ant) I realized I could change it to use the Ant task instead of
exec, I just haven't changed it yet.
<project name="Mail" default="mail" basedir="..">
<target name="mail">
<exec executable="ant.bat" dir="${basedir}/tools"
output="tools/build.log">
</exec>
<mail from="[EMAIL PROTECTED]" tolist="sdonie" subject="Results of nightly
build"
files="tools/build.log" mailhost="mailhost" />
</target>
</project>
