Hi Diane,
*Sorry* to bring this up again, but I am not sure that that will stop my
makefile running? Won't it just echo "bad bongos" and carry on to the next
step?
(please note, again, my knowledge of makefiles is very minimal!)
Cheers,
David

I did a bit more noodling around and found out you don't actually need to
capture it into a var, so there's no need to change the ant.bat script
afterall -- you can just test on errorlevel itself.
So, for the guy doing it from a Makefile, you just need to have a little
batch file that has:
@echo off
ant && if errorlevel 1 echo bad bongos
and his make target runs that batch file instead -- eg:
runant :
@runant.bat
And people running 'ant' directly from a command prompt can do:
C:\> ant && if errorlevel 1 echo bad bongos
(Phew! -- are we all done with this now?? ... schlepping through DOSville
isn't exactly what I'd call a party :)
Diane
