Hello Jacob, Try the exec command. The 'executable' parameter should be 'java' and you can pass arguments to it through the 'arg' tag.

Hi, I'm running some demos from my ant build file with the <java> task. A couple of the demos are gui apps and I've had no problem with them. However, now I have an app that takes command line input and it doesn't seem to be able to take any user input from the console. Is there a way to make this work for <java>? Are there other tasks in Ant that will allow this? Any suggestions? Of course a user can just run it from the command line, but I'd like to have all the demos available to run via ant targets.
