if you want to get a 'Build Failed' ALWAYS ! use failonerror="true", btw. there's no consistency about the default setting across several ant task, some have true, others false as default, always consult the manual. Or use the try/catch/finally construct http://ant-contrib.sourceforge.net/tasks/tasks/trycatch.html of antcontrib tasksuite > b.)

Is there a cleaner method to check output? catch your output in a property for further processing in your ant workflow, see ant manual <exec> task outputproperty | resultproperty | errorproperty Regards, Gilbert --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
