I normally use a two-build setup with a batch file. The batch file calls the first build, which is the main build, and I tell Ant to use its xml logger. Once that build has finished, the batch file calls a second build that converts the xlm log file from the first build into html using the log.xsl file included with ant in an <xslt> task. Might be not as fine-tuned as you'd like, but it works.

Hi, in many buildscripts it's required to collect some data during the whole build over and write it to a file, send it as mail ... etc. at the end of the build. it's possible to echo data to a file and write to that file with echo append as data grows, but that repeating echo is kind of boring. What if there were some kind of container where i could append to and when i like it dump the contents of that container to a file or just echo to stdout. Kind of StringBuffer or similar. <buffer name="buffer1" action="append"> my very special note </buffer> [... ] <buffer name="buffer1" action="append"> another special note </buffer> [...] <buffer name="buffer1" action="dump" file="C:/test/myfile.txt" /> Any ideas how to realize that for ant ?
