Hi,
I'm a newbie here and a newbie to Jython and scripting in Ant. In that
vein:
I've created a scriptdef task which I wrote in Jython. I'm using BSF as
the manager. My intent was to delete files within this task. Everything
works right up to the point where a file is to be deleted, when I get this
exception:
eraseZipFiles:
[delete-in-each-child-dir] Processing ap

SEVERE: Exception :

from Jython:

That's when I smacked my forehead and said to myself, "Self, you're
working in a sandbox you idiot."
Of course I can solve this issue any number of ways, but I was wondering
if there was some way to "disable" the security manager? Would I have the
same issue if I used javax. as the manager? I hope so because I've found
scripting with Jython to be very effective.

Ant has a very minimal sandbox that is designed to stop you calling
system.exit() and nothing else. So I'm pretty surprised by this. Maybe
its BSF Manager at play
1. Looking at the stack trace, you've just tried to create a directory
that isnt there
} else if (!fsDir.isDirectory()) {
handle("Directory does not exist:" + fsDir); //here
2. Is there a version of Jython for the Java6 scripting engine? Ant can
work with that instead.
