Sorry, in regards to my last post, please replace "psbase.mak" with "mymakefile.mak"

If I type this into the command line, it works no problem: emake -B -f mymakefile.mak But if I use the following build.xml file with Ant: <project default="BuildEureka"> <target name="BuildEureka" depends=""> <exec executable="emake" failonerror="true"> <arg line="-B -f psbase.mak"/> </exec> </target> </project> ...I end up with the following output: Buildfile: build.xml BuildEureka: [exec] MAKE Version 5.2 Copyright (c) 1987, 2000 Borland [exec] ** error 1 ** deleting Debug_Build BUILD FAILED ... I have also tried to use the "value" type arg elements, but the result is the same. For those of you that are interested, the executable I'm trying to run is EurekaLog's "emake.exe", intended to be used in place of Borland "make.exe" Not sure if it has anything to do with this issue, but when I try to redirect the output of emake.exe to a file, it says "The handle is invalid." Does anyone know what's going on here? Any help would be greatly appreciated -- thanks! - Steve --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
