What i've done to get around this is created a custom target which calls a
perl script which generates a shell script which runs CVS, calling exit if a
CVS command returns !0.
<target name="cvsupdate" depends="init" unless="cvs.noupdates">
<echo>Importing CVS mail and generating update commands...</echo>
<exec dir="${build.topdir}"
executable="perl"
failonerror="true"
output="${build.cvs.updatescript}">
<arg line="${build.topdir}/build/mail2cvsupdate ${build.cvs.mail}"/>
</exec>
<exec dir="${build.topdir}"
executable="sh"
failonerror="true">
<arg value="${build.cvs.updatescript}"/>
</exec>
</target>
this target alone won't help you much, since it uses some custom tools, but
you should be able to get the jist of it:
a) call perl script. That generates a shell script which has lines like this:
...
echo cvs up -r 1.3 webapps/backoffice/newsletter2/WEB-INF/conf/laf.properties
cvs up -r 1.3 webapps/backoffice/newsletter2/WEB-INF/conf/laf.properties ||
exit $?
...
(excuse the word-wrapping there)
b) call the shell script.
The ant output then goes like this:
stephan@cheyenne:~/cvs/einsurance> ant cvsupdate
Buildfile: build.xml
init:
[echo] Starting einsurance.de build process
...
cvsupdate:
[echo] Importing CVS mail and generating update commands...
[exec] cvs up -r 1.3
webapps/backoffice/newsletter2/WEB-INF/conf/laf.properties
[exec] cvs up -r 1.3
webapps/backoffice/newsletter2/WEB-INF/conf/HelpText.properties
[exec] cvs up -r 1.3
webapps/backoffice/newsletter2/WEB-INF/conf/exceptionhandler.properties
[exec] cvs up -r 1.3
webapps/backoffice/newsletter2/WEB-INF/conf/emailer.properties.production
...
If any of the cvs update lines fails then ant will croak. The whole reason
for the perl script, by the way, is that it reads in CVS mails and converts
them into cvs update commands. So our developers fwd me their CVS-generated
mails and the build process updates only those files to exactly the revision
the developer requested.
