Hi ,
I need build.xml to set an environment variable for windows to use,
actually source safe needs the variable "SSDIR", if i use
<exec executable="cmd.exe" os="Windows 2000">
<arg value="/C set ssdir=\\sourcesafe_server\dir"/>
</exec>
it seems not working properly since it will terminate after setting.
but if I change /C to /K, it doesn't work either, since it cannot
go back to the current build session...what should i do?
thanks for your help... :-)
