As part of our NAnt script to run tests, we have an <exec> task that power cycles the hardware under test so we always start from a pristine state. We originally assumed that the <exec> would always succeed, but we now know it can hang indefinitely.
The <exec> task's timeout attribute looks like exactly what we need. However, how do we tell if the <exec> returned normally (in which case we continue) or timed out (in which case we fail the script)? If I set the failonerror attribute to false, could I check the resultproperty to see if that property is at it's initial value (as opposed to reflecting a 0 or 1 from the execution of the <exec>?
