RE: Ant's exec command example

[David McTavish]

you could also put all of these on a single line as follows:

    <exec executable="cp">
        <arg line="-p -R ${srcDir} ${destDir}"/>
    </exec>

I figured it out!

This works:

     <exec executable="cp">
       <arg value="-p" />
       <arg value="-R" />
       <arg value="${srcDir}" />
       <arg value="${destDir}" />
     </exec>
