I've got an Exec task to startup JBoss.  JBoss starts OK, but my build script
just sits there executing the startJBoss task and never returns.  How can I
run an external script like this but fork or spawn the process so control
returns to my build script?

task startJboss(type:Exec) {      
      executable = "$rootDir/../uwm/build/tools/jboss/bin/start-run.bat"
      //args "spawn=true"
      environment 'NOPAUSE': 'true', 'WORKSPACE': "$rootDir/../"          
}

The Ant equivalent used to be as follows.  The exec task had a 'spawn'
attribute, but I couldn't see anything similiar in the Gradle Exec task.


    spawn="true">
        
        
    


The start-run.bat script I'm calling does this:
start "JBoss dev" cmd /c %WORKSPACE%\jboss\jboss-4.0.2-dev\bin\run.bat
