You can run a batch script that first calls env.bat and then does
something else. You can also specify environment variables in <exec> by
calling <env>.

Thanks Alexey! But how can you execute the batch file within the <exec> task? You can't do a nested <exec> can you?
thanks,
Barry

When you start a new process only that process get new environment - it
is not propagated back into parent process. You need to execute env.bat
just before ANT or within <exec> task, if the task requires env.bat to run.

Hello,
I want to be able to invoke a batch script on Windows 2000 that
sets up some environment variables. I know that I can use nested <env>
elements with <exec>, but I really need to be able to run this script.
<exec executable="cmd.exe">
<arg line="/c env.bat"/>
</exec>
The script does run because I can see the output in the console, but
the environment variables are not set when the JVM exits.
Is there a way to do this?
many thanks,
Barry
