http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=30631 Need a way to get process-id for <exec..> task [EMAIL PROTECTED] changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|NEW |RESOLVED Resolution| |WONTFIX ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2004-08-13 09:10 ------- you have to remember that Ant is a build tool, not a generic process-execution-workflow language. It often gets used as the latter, but it is not its strength. futhermore, there is no notion of processID in java processes; that is an OS-specific abstraction that is hidden from us unworthy developers :) So we cannot get a process ID, or implement a kill in a cross platform manner. Can I point you at the smartfrog deployment framework ( http://smartfrog.org/ ) which is designed to manage long running processes with secure remote deploy/undeploy/health checks. There is a new release due by the end of the month, with ant tasks included. It avoids the processID problem by having a daemon running continually to remember what was deployed, the same program that responds to local/remote deploy/undeploy requests. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
