It is standard out and standard error. I.e. When
a program calls System.out.println("hello world");
or System.err.println("Opps, an error has occuried");Peter On 9/28/06, [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
I'm confused about the "outputproperty" attribute of the <java> task. The manual says of it, "The name of a property in which the output of the command should be stored. Unless the error stream is redirected to a separate file or stream, this property will include the error output." My questions are: 1) What exactly does the "output of the command" mean? When I execute a class I am executing the class's "main" method. Of course the main signature is void, meaning that it does not return any value itself. If the main method calls a member method that does return a value (a String, for instance), is the value returned by that member method the information that is supposed to be captured in the property specified as the "outputproperty" attribute's value? 2) If that's not what it means, what exactly does it mean? I ask this because I haven't been able to figure a way of getting a value returned from a Java class into an Ant property. -- Charles Knell [EMAIL PROTECTED] - email --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
