Now that you've made <exec> throw exceptions if the user combines output with spawn (and it will be documented that way), we won't have the user expect something wrong. Now the user knows that she has to tale care of the standard streams. > I thought anyway that you do not want the output or error messages > coming from the spawned process to pollute asynchronously the ant > logs. Certainly not, but you may want them to go to a file to review that later or send them to /dev/null if you can't suppress output.
