Have you tried using the resultproperty attribute on the exec task to get the exit code of the called command?
You can use the foreach task in nant to read your log file... that what I do to read our sql change management software's log file.

My projects need to build in VS2005 for a desktop application but also in MS embedded visual c++ 4.0 for an embedded application. Actually the VS2005 is a desktop simulation of the embedded one. The VS2005 is no problem, there things work out ok. I can let NAnt build the embedded as well. Because the evc++ executes immediately I don't know if the build is succesfull or not. So I use to execute a batch file which calls the embedded visual c++ so NAnt waits for the evc++ to be finished. The problem is that I have no idea if the build was successfull or not. I thought about checking the evc++ log file for a certain string ("0 Error(s)")by using grep, if it is present I know the build is successfull. I tried doing this by executing grep because grep returns a value 0 if found and 1 otherwise. But then I do not find how to pass the string because it contains a space. Using from NAnt contributes did not work out neither. Any ideas or some buildfile example? regards, Jef _________________________________________________________________ Ontdek Windows Live Hotmail, het ultieme online mailprogramma! http://get.live.com/mail/overview ------------------------------------------------------------------------ - This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
