Your xml code has an illegal use of quotes. Try this:
<exec program="p4.exe" commandline='label -o DevTemplate | sed -e "s/DevTemplate/dev01/g" | p4.exe label -I' /> Thanks, Melissa -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Girardelli, Erin E Sent: Thursday, July 20, 2006 2:09 PM To: nant-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [NAnt-users] Can't use pipe (|) within exec Hi, When I try to use a pipe or redirecting arrow in the exec task, I get a failure saying the program I executed has the wrong number of arguments. Here's what it looks like within my script: <exec program="p4.exe" commandline="label -o DevTemplate | sed -e "s/DevTemplate/dev01/g" | p4.exe label -i" /> I get the same failure no matter what program I am using; it isn't unique to my "p4.exe" program. If I type the following into a command prompt, everything works just fine: p4 label -o DevTemplate | sed -e "s/DevTemplate/dev01/g" | p4 label -i So, how can I translate the above line into NAnt without resorting to a batch file?
