Hi all, I've just recently started using Ant on Linux, and so far it has been really amazing. I've run into one problem, however, that I haven't been able to get past.
I would like to call an external script (a python script to minimize some JavaScript files), but have not been able to get it to execute properly. I searched around some, and found an earlier thread (http://marc.info/?l=ant-user&m=115078380228196&w=2) where someone with a similar problem was able to fix things setting "resolveexecutable" to true. This works for me when I try running a dummy script with no arguments, e.g: ... <exec dir="./" executable="test.py" resolveexecutable="true"/> ... [exec] Hello World When I try and do something requiring command-line arguments though I can't get it to work: <exec dir="./" executable="python" resolveexecutable="true"> <arg value="install/tools/jsmin.py"/> <arg value="<${libs}/build/test.js>"/> <arg value="${libs}/build/testl-min.js"/> </exec> I've tried executing both "python" (and passing the scripts name as an argument), and the script itself. Nothing seems to work. The command executes fine from the command-line, and what even more, when I print the arguments passed to the python script using argv, and then string them together and run them it works fine, but still no luck when I try to get it working through ant. Anyone have any suggestions as to what might be the problem? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Keith
