Hi,
I'm using a Java class to execute an Ant project, and am unable to direct
compile errors to the log file used by my BuildLogger.
Here's an abbreviated version of my code:
Project p = new Project();
p.init();
p.setUserProperty("ant.file", "common.xml") //more on this later
DefaultLogger logger = new DefaultLogger();
p.addBuildListener(logger);
PrintStream ps = new PrintStream(new FileOutputStream("task.log"));
logger.setOutputPrintStream(ps);
logger.setErrorPrintStream(ps);
p.executeTarget("myTarget");
As for the common.xml file above, it does some build pre-processing tasks
including getting the files I want to build from the source repository. Among
those files is the "build.xml" file that contains the <javac> task.
common.xml triggers "build.xml" using an <ant targetFile="build.xml"....../>
All works well when I run my Java class from a command prompt, unless there is
a compile error during the <javac> task. While my Java class gets notified of
the error via a BuildException, the compiler error messages get dumped to my
command line window (Windows) instead of "task.log".
I understand that the Sun Javac class (I'm using the modern compiler in Ant
1.7) defaults to System.err, but is there any way I can force it to my output
file?
Thanks,
Kevin
